The continuing story of Aquaholic

Aquaholic was one of Jeff’s early customers, and he has ridden a number of different Jones bikes over the years.  Most recently he bought a Jones Titanium Diamond Frame Plus LWB (check out the post here), and that bike was a big departure for him because he loves big rock rolls and […]

    Overnight Ride in Southern Oregon With my Jones Plus SWB Complete Bike

Overnight Ride in Southern Oregon With my Jones Plus SWB Complete Bike

Just days after the first test rides on my new bike, we had an awesome lightning thunder show. Then fires and a full summer of thick smoke.  Once the smoke cleared and blue skies returned, I went out for a good long ride with an overnight in the middle.

I’m trying out some different parts on […]

    Finally: some recently (and not so recently) completed builds!

Finally: some recently (and not so recently) completed builds!

Over the years we’ve posted photos of some of the recent bikes we’ve built for customers, but lately, we’ve been busy with other things and all of the bike builds that have been happening just haven’t ended up on the blog.  Hopefully late really is better than never, because what follows is a sampling of […]

The return of the Jones Unicrown fork

Jeff designed his iconic Truss forks to make the best use of the traits of titanium (the original material in which he made them) in order to deliver the maximum stiffness and strength with the least weight, all while maining a forgiving ride.   They deliver an impressive ride quality that manages to balance precise […]

What happened to the Jones 29?

One of the more common question questions we get is whether we are discontinuing the Jones 29 framesets.

The answer is no.

Jeff has updated his original short wheelbase bike, and with that update has come a name change, but the changes to the geometry are very minimal.  With an aim to clarify the changes to […]

    It’s happening. The Jones Titanium Spaceframe Plus LWB is coming!

It’s happening. The Jones Titanium Spaceframe Plus LWB is coming!

The search for the best ride has been Jeff’s guiding principle since he first started building bikes back in the early 2000’s.

Jeff’s iconic titanium 3D Spaceframes and Truss forks were some of his first designs, which started with 26″ wheels (see an early interview and photo here), and the basic design has remained largely […]

Bikes on the trail

 

We often post studio photos of the bikes we build before they go out to their new owners, but it goes without saying that those bikes are going out to be ridden, so we wanted to post a few photos that those riders have sent to us!  With each bike that we build up […]

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

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 […]

Introducing the SG 2.5 Aluminum Loop H-Bar

Jeff hears from a lot of riders who need to get their handlebars higher in order to be comfortable on their bikes, and while his framesets make that easy, many riders are installing H-Bars on other brands of bikes with low headtubes that make it very difficult to get the handlebars high-enough.  For them, […]

The Jones Plus SWB is Coming!

For many years, Jeff had one geometry—in many frame design configurations—which has come to be known as the Jones 29 geometry (check out this article for further reading).  Based around a short wheelbase design, rigid-specific design, and the new (when it was introduced) 29 x 2.4″ tires, it’s a geometry that even over a […]
