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 […]

Joe got a Jones singlespeed bike a few months ago. His wife liked it so much and kept taking it for rides, now she is getting one too.
Now I’ll clean, tune and pack the bike. It’ll ship on Monday.

This is not his first Jones bike.
Garrick sent me this photo of his and his and buddy’s VW transporters and Jones bikes. Nice vehicles!

The rim is the Surly Rabbit Hole and it has two rows of 32 holes for the spokes. I built this wheel with all the spokes into the holes on the […]
