Grant, a photographer working for Privateer, visited me last week. He was here for a couple of days, seeing the work I do, the shop and things. He took some pictures. There will be a story in an upcoming issue which I’m looking forward to seeing and reading. It […]
This bike was ridden and reviewed by Patrick O’Grady for Adventure Cyclist magazine.

Tim (my photographer friend) and I went for a ride last week. Just the loop from the shop, around and back. The trails are a little sticky in places but they’re riding well. I lent Tim a bike to ride. It was his first ride on a fat front and he was impressed enough […]
This is the latest version of my steel Diamond frame and Unicrown fork first introduced in 2010. I want to talk about some of the details, the thought that goes in to my work. People might think this is a ‘standard’ steel frame and forks. It isn’t. It began as an exceptional frameset but […]
Joe sent me this phone photo of Tonia out on her first ride with her new bike.
She looks like she is enjoying the ride!
There’s a Jones feature in the Kong Kong edition of HIM magazine. It looks great, and I’m told it’s a good read too – for those who can. Certainly “I love bicycle very much”. Many thanks to Jimmie for the exposure. Here are the pages. And HIM can be found here… http://www.him.com.hk/index_him.htm
