The Jamis Renegade gravel bike was first introduced in 2014, making it the first production gravel bike in the US.
Jamis' product designers TC Corbett and Greg Weber were inspired by custom frame builders at the time who were modifying cyclocross bikes by adding rack and fender mounts and widening the frame to take larger than the standard 700 x 33 size cyclocross tires.
These unique cyclocross, touring, cross country mosh ups define multi-surface versatility.
11 years after the Renegades introduction Gravel bikes have become the most popular type of drop handlebar bikes on the market, outselling pavement only road racing bikes 20 to 1.
These are Jamis' most acclaimed models and some of the best gravel bikes available under $6,000.
