Re: [RBW] Jones and Hunq

Hi Daniel, Thanks! Seems like you guys had an amazing trip there. Thanks for sharing the info. I'm currently researching my options to take my 5 yr old son around on my upcoming Appaloosa. I'm leaning toward Bobike Classic Junior. I used iBert on my old mountain bike until he was about

I second to call Jeff. >From what I remember they only had one size for a long time, the 24", which was meant for a wide variety of riders. The more you raise the seat the longer the effective top tube becomes, and from there it's a matter of saddle position and stem length to dial it in. I think

Re: [RBW] Jones and Hunq

Bill asked how folks are fit for Jones bikes. The website says riders 5'7" to 6'2" fit the 24" medium. It also says in many places that buyers are encouraged to call Jeff to talk specifics. So in the end, I think Jeff would say, "Call me to discuss fit." Guessing wouldn't be a great move

For those who have ridden Jones frames with the truss and unicrown forks... is there a significant handling difference? >From what I gather the truss is about giving braking stiffness at lighter >weight than a traditional fork but I wonder if it also contributes to the >secret sauce that makes

Andrew, I've been interested in a Jones for awhile... let me know if you're interested in a road bike for Jones trade. I've 57-59 cm road frames/bikes. - Max -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this

Dear Ash, I use a Yepp Mini for the kid and a Pass and Stow with Swift INdustries and Porcelain Rocket baggage - as seen here in the aforementioned CA trip last year. There are other photos in that album of the Hunq setup.

Hi Daniel, >> I visited the area last Spring with my Hunqapillar, and it was great fun to ride it fully loaded with a toddler on the front on the singletrack around Mt. Tam. What's your arrangement for the toddler? Something like the iBert mounted on the top tube? Your family trip style is

All purpose riding with commuting and errands mixed in I would bike the Hunq. Mountainbiking, bike packing, and even touring where you don't unload and reload the bike multiple times a day I would go with the Jones. Lots of climbing the Jones. I love my Jones steel diamond truss. I wish it

Andrew, How much are you hoping to get? Size? It's not a Jones Plus, right? If it is, I may have a problem on my hands. :) Bob -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from

I'm also interested in Jones vs Rivendell comparisons... I'm digging the Jones loop bars I've been trying out lately and am intrigued by the design. Tony -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and

I am actually hoping to sell a Jones diamond 29 (steel). Not because it isn't a great bike though. I'm not much of a skilled trail rider but this bike makes me better. Super comfortable on road too. I'm lusting after a traditional road bike now so the Jones drew the short straw. -- You

Well this will not really address your question but I own a Sam, a Chivot, and a San Marcos and have a Jones diamond truss in titanium. The Jones is not the plus. However, the Jones is just a fabulous riding bike and I can not recommend it more highly. Hard to describe but it just eats up

Just curious if anyone on the board has a Jones 29er or Plus and a Hunq? Overlap aside, just wondering thoughts and comparisons between the two. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop
