If your car runs out of gas, do you just go and buy another?

Considering buying a bike (especially one that is "about the same") to deal with your current "problem" seems a bit drastic.

If your brake is rubbing, you should fix that (and it's unlikely that Jamises are immune from that problem). But I doubt that you'd notice any effect.

This kind of indicates that your "problem" isn't going to go away with buying the Jamis, doesn't it?

======================

Maybe, it would be useful to run your bike by a bike shop to check it out.

Hopefully, there's enough air in the tires.
