Sequoia Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 You can say what you want to, but that guy is a craftsman... Nobody would be able to say that you are a conformist when you rock up on one of JJ's creations...
#Pete# Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 Agree - awesome bike and what an experience to actually get one. I 'lived' through this one being built on mtbr: http://forums.mtbr.com/showthread.php?t=140117 ...maybe one day (yeah sure)

Mudsimus Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 U say thats sexier than a beautiful carbon monocoque frame? u must b joking! There is nothing sexy about a carbon frame.
MintSauce Posted October 30, 2007 Author Posted October 30, 2007 Carbon whatever = Technology Jeff Jones = Craftsmenship Both have their place
RodTi Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Curious about his gearing... With only one blade in front - but a complete cassette at the back, how would they set it up to allow for the complete range of gearing without getting the usual "chain-cross" problems? As for the bike - actually looks cooler "in flight"...And after taking a long, hard look at the design - can actually understand what he is trying to do... With all those 'thinner' flowing tubes, as opposed to thicker, solid tubes usually used, the flex should be pretty substantial - and yet, it's probably not an insurmountable problem due to the manner in which he has "doubled up" in the areas that do need support.... Think this bike is one of those that few would ever really appreciate until they actually ride them... Must say though - the fork setup takes some adjusting of the mind...
Christie Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Is it supposed to be compared to a full-sus, a hardtail, or a hard everything?
