Jamis Womens Road Bike Design

The Quest Femme and Satellite Femme are womens bikes that are made to cover a lot of ground, with speed and comfort.

With their shorter top tubes promoting a slightly more upright ride position, our smooth-riding steel Femme bikes offer more comfort by taking weight off the wrists and taking less out of your back. You’re still in an aero position, only it’s not so aggressive so you can stay in the saddle longer. What you give up in pure aerodynamic speed is more than made up for with endurance and comfort, so you’ll actually ride farther without realizing it.

These are bikes designed for the club ride, the long-mileage treks of summer, or that charity ride your friends have been talking about. Do it on a Quest or Satellite. You’re likely to raise more miles-ridden pledge money than you ever thought you could.

The fit is everything, when it comes to bicycles. Especially for road bikes where the slightest inefficiency is a glaring handicap.

A properly designed woman’s bike accounts for the typical woman’s proportionately longer legs and shorter torso, with frame tubing tuned for lighter-weight physiques (think SST!). That means the overall cockpit length needs to be shorter than the typical man’s bike, while keeping an eye on pedal/wheel clearance.

So we’ve shortened top tubes and stems, decreased head angles and increased fork rakes, and even added a new XS 44cm frame size. It also takes size-specific components like narrower handlebars, shorter reach brake levers and wider saddles to ensure that the ride is efficient and comfortable.
