Risen Jones

[GregMay]

What do you get when you add more yeast to a pair of Jones bars?

These apparently

More room for a shopping basket?

[benp1]

That's a good idea that!

[voodoo_simon]

Look nice but struggling to see the why? Surely putting a few spacers below the existing bar will work similar?

Not if you're steerer is too short

The only way to get around it would be a riser stem

interested in these for the fat bike (where the steerer is a bit on the short side as mentioned above). It's had Jones bars on it before and I've been looking for a riser stem.

Solution finds it's problem

Fair point, I always leave a bit extra on my steerers

They would look incredible on my special needs stooge - it already has loads of spacer and a 50mm 30° stem - with these it would be a proper sit up and beg

must admit that...

I saw these and thought of you

[fatbikephil]

Aye saw that today, ideal for middle age gits with back probs like me! They would put the bars on my jones 4" higher than the seat
No doubt there will be a further price hike over the standards....

I thought that but non-butted tubes so cheapest bars they do at $79 and on pre-order for October.

My brain wondered what they'd be like flipped. On an older touring bike I have with uber high headtube.

But yeah, I like the idea, for certain circumstances.

I'm obviously renowned for being decrepid now - someone had already posted me the link this morning

I would say known for being determined to keep riding in the face of adversity.

We'll see how I get on in a few weeks - just don't tell my neurologist what I've signed up for . . .he wouldn't understand

[adjustablewench]

Just looked on the Jones website - these are available to pre order at $79 - that seems a bit bonkers for Jones bars

[atk]

Same price as the SG loops (which I believe are just short of £100 in the UK)

[BigdummySteve]

The weight is getting a little excessive though, as a born again weight weenie the 600g plus is scary

[Bearbonesnorm]

I like them ........ which is generally a kiss of death to anything and tends to mean than 90% of everyone else won't

[GregMay]

I'm wondering if the agressive rise stem brigade will prefer the look of these in wanting to get a higher bar position as well? Should give options for deeper loop pocket storage pouches too.

[Blair512]

I also like them, they'll look much better that the massive stack of spacers I currently have!
