The Faultline features Jamis' MP2 suspension design, which has won several bicycle industry accolades and Bike of the Year Awards.
The rear suspension is driven by a rocker driven single pivot system. Proven, simple, affordable and durable.
The Faultline series updates the MP2 design to 29 inch wheels with trail ready 130mm of front and 115mm of rear suspension.
Outfitted with Rockshox Air sprung suspension front and rear, Shimano's SLX 1x12 drivetrain and an internally routed KS dropper post.
The brakes are 4 piston Shimano hydraulic disc with 180mm front/160mm rear rotors and the wheels are tubeless ready Stan's Arch rims with SLX hubs.
If you are looking for the maximum performance you can find on a full suspension under $3,000, this is a good contender.
