Jamis Faultline Trail Bike

The Faultline is a dedicated trail bike designed for all-day riding on varied terrain. With 120mm of rear travel and 130mm up front, it balances climbing efficiency with enough capability to handle technical descents and rougher trail features.

The MP2 platform is designed to remain active while pedaling, meaning it resists bobbing when you put power into the drivetrain. It provides a consistent, predictable feel that helps you maintain traction on loose climbs and smooth out chatter on the way down.

By using an asymmetrical chainstay, Jamis is able to increase lateral stiffness in the rear triangle, which improves power transfer when you accelerate. This design also creates extra clearance for the rear tire, allowing you to run wider rubber without worrying about frame rub.

Yes, both the A1 and A2 models come with tubeless-ready rims and tires. Converting to a tubeless setup is highly recommended, as it allows you to run lower tire pressures for better grip and significantly reduces the risk of pinch flats.

Absolutely. The Faultline is specifically designed to be an approachable entry point into full-suspension riding. Its geometry and suspension travel are forgiving enough to build your confidence on technical trails without being so aggressive that it feels sluggish on flatter, flowy sections.
