    Awesome videos... I'm in love with the 29er plus platform. I would love to own one of your bikes someday!

    I'm building a 2 stroke gasoline motorized on a Mongoose Dolomite. I think I would love these handlebars. If anyone has pictures of bike such as this I'd love to see them.

    just got a kona rove (chromoly) wich is a gravel grinder, you think a H-bar would be good for it?, looks like it to me but im not sure...

      Yes. Drop bars have great hand positions for sprinting. The Loop H-Bar has great hand positions for long rides: blog.jonesbikes.com/james-%E2%80%93-tour-divide/

    How do you find the handling on a 29er? I find even with long handlebars, quick responses is difficult and have to lift the front wheel up a tad....

    What tires are you running here? Also, any thoughts on the Vee 'Trax Fatty'?

    • @Veloperator

      Maxxis Chronicle and Surly Knard, 29" X 3". I have not tried the Vee tire.

    What's the tallest gear on your bike? 34 front 10 rear? I'm assuming it's a 1x drivetrain.

      34t to 10t with 29x3" wheel is 101.7 gear inches.
      34t to 50t with 29x3" wheel is 20.3 gear inches.
      38t will fit.
      38t to 10t with 29x3" wheel is 113.6 gear inches.
      38t to 50t with 29x3" wheel is 22.7 gear inches.
      38t x 10t with 29x3" wheel is 34t x 10t with 29x3" wheel is 113.6 gear inches.

    just curious what the deal is with the four struts on the fork?

      Ridgid, strong. Less flexing, better feedback, more control. Absorbs energy in all directions : front, back
      side to side, up & down.

    Does anyone have these bikes in Australia?

    Those handlebars look very comfy. I get sore wrists after a while on straight bars, do you think these bars might help with that?

    • @ericpmoss
      @ericpmoss 8 років тому +1

      My experience is that on a standard/longish top-tubed MTB, the 30 degree bend of OnOne bars might work better than the 45 degree bend of the Jones. However, it's still easier on my wrists than the 6 & 12 degree bends of other carbon bars I've tried. If you have a more upright setup, I think the Jones are hard to beat.

    • @zorrozorro42

      Thanks for the reply. I ended up going with a pair of Contec Baguette Magique bars with a 35 degree sweep and they've cured my wrist problems.

      They do. If you have numbness or outright pain with straight bars, or even 9 degree bars... the H-bar is a life saver. I did have to save up my money to get them though.

      One of the bikes here did have a suspension fork: ua-cam.com/video/bJ8LbYh4U9Y/v-deo.html

    That bike clearly looks inferior to a normal 29er trail bike. I'm sure your chiropractor loves it...

      Clearly you assume too much. Or maybe you wer there that day?
