Hi, I'm also 5'7" and nearly 81 PBH. I have a 48cm Hunqapillar and 56cm AHH.
I love them both! I, too, have been looking at the Jones+. Maybe a future bday present. (Glad I haven't called yet!) The Hunqapillar serves great duty as a kid hauler and grocery getter. It is an occasional mountain bike-- wish I could do more trails with it. I have it sharing commuting duties with AHH. AHH is definitely a faster bike-- for how I have them set up. (Hunqapillar is typically front+rear racks, sometimes front kid seat or rear Burley piccolo or rear trailer. Wears albatross, usually, though I swap out for bullmoose or mustache when I'm in the mood and don't have to haul the front seat.) AHH is set up with Noodles and saddlesack. It's a perfect, fast commuter. Probably great all rounder, though I haven't tested those boundaries as much as I'd like. I'm not sure how the Jones would fit in my stable... but maybe that's reason enough to try. (BTW: 54cm would probably fit a bit better, but 56cm is fine when I'm riding.) Good luck in your search! AHH is a wonderful bike (as is the Hunqapillar). shoji On Sunday, December 27, 2015 at 4:51:41 PM UTC-5, dstein wrote: > > Yeah I figure it's a long shot, I almost never see used ones pop up ;) > > I got a Jones Plus.
