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 some taller riders pushed for the 25". And this is the first I've heard of the 23".
I talked w/ Jeff and based off what he told me he directed me to a certain stem length and cut the steerer. Haven't messed with it since I unboxed it. On Bill's point of road vs. mtn biking I think the same fit principles apply for the Jones either way. It's not a drop bar road bike. With road bikes and drop bars there is a lot more fine tuning to get comfortable as you're leaned over in an aero position with a lot of weight on the handlebars and things you want to account for for speed. There's a lot more versatility w/ the Jones w/ the ec bottom bracket, loop bars, etc. As I'm not the best at explaining things, call Jeff ;) On Mon, Dec 19, 2016 at 1:08 PM, Robert Keal <bobk...@gmail.com> wrote: > Bill asked how folks are fit for Jones bikes. > > The website says riders 5'7" to 6'2" fit the 24" medium.
