Veloci Jimmy V2.1 Frame Details

The Jimmy V2.1 is Veloci's classic steel gravel and light bikepacking frame. Where the Roadmance is built for rougher terrain and bigger adventures, the Jimmy is built for speed, feel, and the kind of riding where the journey is the point.

As Pete puts it: "One is a bit more mountain-bike inspired, the other is leaning towards relaxed road geometry." That's it in a nutshell.

The Frame

Like all Veloci frames, the Jimmy V2.1 is built from seamless, heat-treated, multi-butted MKPT chromoly steel. It's engineered to be light where it can be and strong where it needs to be, and is also coated inside and out with an ED finish for long-term rust protection and paint durability.

The No.11 carbon fork keeps the overall weight in check — the frame comes in at 2.2kg for a size M — while adding rack and mud guard mounts for riders who want to carry gear or keep the mud off. Dynamo cable routing is built in for those who want to run lights on longer adventures or just can't be bothered with batteries and recharging. (We get it.)

The bottom bracket is a 68mm BSA threaded shell, same as the Roadmance and equally welcome for the same reasons.

Every Jimmy we build leaves our Adelaide workshop ready to go anywhere you point it.

Geometry & Versatility

The Jimmy is refined, efficient, and with the kind of neutral geometry that makes long days in the saddle feel easy rather than heroic. With a higher head angle and moderate wheelbase than the Roadmance, it feels predictable, efficient and happy sitting at tempo for hours. It's not a twitchy race bike, but it's not a plough horse either. It sits right in that sweet spot where you can push it when you want to and it rewards you when you do.

Tyre clearance runs to 700x50c or 27.5x2.1", so it’s capable across most gravel and light off-road terrain without going full monster-truck. The V2.1 update brings a more versatile mounting system: three Three-Pack bottle cage mounts on the frame, two on the fork, rack mounts front and rear, and full fender mounts on the frame and fork. For a light bikepacking or touring setup, that's everything you need.

Who rides a Jimmy

The Jimmy suits Adelaide riders who want one bike that does everything well without specialising in anything extreme. Road cyclists moving into gravel. Gravel riders who value feel and speed over outright capability. Bikepackers who prefer fast and light over loaded and slow.

If your idea of a perfect day involves disappearing for a while with just enough gear, the Jimmy is your frame.
