I'm selling my 2009 Jamis Dakota Elite mtb. This has actually been a terrific bike that I bought for $1800 on sale back in 2009. It's MSRP is $2,000. (/quickbike/BikeSpecs.aspx?year=2009&brand=Jamis&model=Dakota+Elite) I myself have actually updated this bike, and the upgrades alone are worth even more than $500. It has ridden trails from California, Utah, Colorado, and from Texas through Florida. This bike gets very high user testimonials on mtbr.com(/cat/bikes/xc-hardtail/jamis/dakota-elite/prd.
