    Im looking at a new left over 2004 Jamis Dakar. It would be my first FS

    your opinions on it. I think its all stock.

    HEADSET Aheadset, STS-2K, 1 1/8".
    DERAILLEURS Shimano Deore rear, Alivio 31.8mm conventional clamp/top

    I bought a leftover 2003 Dakar Sport in 2004 for a deal about like your
    getting. I've been nothing but happy with the bike. Normal maintenance is
    all the bike has needed. Buy the bike and have fun.

    Yep. They'll definitely slow you down.
    Can you get it without the brakes?
