I hope someone buys it. Preferably someone in the bay area so we can Jones it up. I was very skeptical of the one size fits all frame size (I think they have 2 sizes now) but my 24" frame fits my 80PBH fine and it handles really well on technical terrain. On Saturday, August 6, 2016 at

I think alot of Riv fans would like a Jones Plus. Long chainstays (48cm+), Shallow seat angle (71 degrees), low bottom bracket (76-88mm BB drop), long wheelbase (almost 1200cm) and the ability to run fat tires (up to 3"). Plus it's made of steel. All things that contribute to Rivendells

Agree that everyone needs a jones ;). But pictures and a better description helps. Is this with the truss fork or regular fork? What color? I'm assuming this is not the plus version? What tire sizes are on there now? etc. I already have a Plus and don't need another one, but any potential

Purchasing a bike on a basis of need, I agree, is not likely. I suppose anyone interested enough to open the thread may well understand the appeal already or develop interest that would lead them to do research, especially at this price point. That's the way I go about things. For example, I

Andrew, it's pretty unlikely that anybody "needs" your Jones. Creation of desire and impulse and feeding frenzy in your audience is helped enormously by putting some effort into providing careful and detailed photographs. Or perhaps you don't *actually* want to sell, in which case,

Last chance befor I just ante up the money and buy a Riv. 51 JApp or Hunqapillar as trade. Also any suggestion as to how not to incite a riot with bike purchase, send them my way. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To

Yes I would hope to trade the bike if possible but a sale would work well too. I typically post from a Chromebook at work without access to my photos of the Jones. I am more than happy to email anyone with detailed photos. I definitely appreciate the fairness of the group regarding posting.

A post like this breaks no rules at all. Very very few posts ever get deleted from this board. All people care about is that there is at least some kind of Riv content, no matter how tangential. Trying to raise funds to buy a Rivendell is totally Riv-content. I do encourage you to post a
