We are Jones Dealer and are proud to offer such an prestigious Titanium brand in our store. Jones Bikes is not a brand you just offer "to go" in a onlineshop as it is more a process of planining and building a dream bikes around the frameset. If you are interested in a Jones complete build or frameset please get in contact with us via Mail.
The Jones Titanium Spaceframe Plus LWB frame and fork set is the smoothest-riding of the already smooth Jones Plus LWB line!
The titanium Spaceframe Plus LWB shows that it really is possible to make that bike even more comfortable while also lowering the standover for greater maneuverability! Whether you want a bike to ride around town with more comfort than you would have thought possible, to shred your local singletrack, or to ride to the ends of the earth, this just might be the one! It's hard to overstate just how smooth and versatile this frameset is.
This frame is all about function.
The 3D Spaceframe design was inspired by and born of riding on the tight, technical trails in the woods here in Southern Oregon, and each step in its development has been a functional refinement, so while some might speculate that the frame is supposed to look interesting, Jeff's only aim with the Spaceframe has always been to make a better bicycle. The frame's upper tubes are long, thin, braced, and curved in just the right way to allow them to flex and keep the bike vertically compliant; the downtube, chainstays and seat tube are oversized to keep the bike torsionally stiff. The low-slung top tube arrangement keeps the bike out of your way in technical terrain, so you can focus on riding.
Geometry details
The frame has a 67.5 degree head tube angle with 76mm of fork rake/offset for a short trail measurement so the handling is quick even with such a slack head angle. This is twice as much fork rake as many 29ers had. The 71 degree seat tube angle can be used with a straight seatpost and will give a similar seating position as the 72 degree seat tube angle with a set back post on a Jones 29. Tall riders or riders that want to sit further back may want to use a set-back seat post. The chainstays are 19″. This new 23" Plus size works out having an even shorter effective top-tube than the Jones 29 (which has a 23" top tube as well) because of the Plus's slacker seatube angle. For reference: if it had the same seatube angle as a Jones 29, it would actually work out as having closer to a 22" top tube, which is just to say that it's shorter and smaller, even though the top tube length is stated as the same length. This short reach, combined with the low standover of the Spaceframe design, brings the inspired ride of the Jones Plus to smaller riders who wouldn't have enough standover on the Diamond frame design. A short wheel base is not the only way. Long has many benefits.
EBB versatility
The eccentric bottom bracket (EBB) ensures the Bottom Bracket BB height is adjustable. When using the smaller 29″ wheels (tires) you put the BB at the top of the EBB to keep the BB height the same as when you have taller 29+ wheels and the BB at the bottom of the EBB. You can also run the BB at the bottom for a extra low BB with 29″ wheels, or run the BB at the top with 29+ wheel for a higher BB. BB drop: BB in top position – 76mm, BB in bottom position – 88mm
