The first two Jones Plus SWB bikes are built, and we have photos!

Just in time for Interbike, we got one of the new Jones Spaceframe Plus SWB and one of the Jones Diamond frame Plus SWB bikes built!  The new blue color looks even better in person, and Jeff is really happy with how these framesets turned out.  The bikes represent a couple of the wide array of options available when building these bikes up: the Spaceframe Plus SWB has 27.5 x 3″ rear and 27.5x 3.8″ front tires, wide carbon rims, and a Sram XX1 Eagle 1×12 drivetrain, and the Diamond Plus SWB build uses a Sram GX Eagle drivetrain, Raceface ARC 45 rims (with 27.5 x 3″) tires, and the new SG 2.5 Aluminum Loop H-Bars to make a bike that will allow you to ride anything, and get stay extra-upright!  Both of these framesets have the same Jones Plus SWB geometry.  The Spaceframe design has a super-low tube for maximum standover clearance and extra vertical compliance in the rear end, while the Diamond frame has more bottle cage mounts, more framepack capacity, and lighter weight!

The frames have the same geometry, same fit, same handling, but different frame design.  In other words, they are the exact same, with exception of their top tubes and seat stays, and one extra bottle boss on the Diamond frame.

Check out the photos below for more information!

The machined-out dropouts are light and strong.  Three lower rack/fender mounts give plenty of mounting options, and a low-mount disc brake keeps the brake caliper out of the way! The TA Bolts keep wheel attachment simple and very secure.
The super-simple pinch bolt EBB is extremely secure and easy-to-use. It also has fully replaceable, stainless steel hardware for maximum durability.

Upper rack mounts on the seatstays, as well as one of the fender bosses on the seatstay bridge (there is one on the chainstay bridge as well for easy fender mounting).
The Diamond Plus SWB built up for a very upright ride! While usually unnecessary on a Jones bike, the SG 2.5 Aluminum Loop H-Bars make it very easy to get into a very upright position!
Both the Spaceframe and Diamond Frame Plus SWB have full rack and fender mounts on the frame.
The top of the down tube on the Diamond frame Plus SWB has three bosses for a triple-boss style cage near the bottom bracket, and a traditional two-boss configuration up toward the headtube, in addition to the triple boss arrangement underneath the downtube to allow you to mount lots of cages!

The Jones Plus SWB is available now for pre-order as a frameset, or complete bike!  If you have any questions about the framesets or complete bikes, feel free to give us a call or send an email!
