Maxxis Chronicle is a tyre option. As for older frames ‘crashing’ – too good for that!
Not older, just different. Two models now ‘29‘ and ‘Plus‘. More words and pictures to come.
I don’t think this bike replaces the current one, seems like an alternative with mods to suit the big OD tyres. Compromises either way whatever you do. I expect you’ll see a few more steel frames SH before long though.
yeah.. you know what I mean : ) ‘balances’ then. Was out on the ‘old’ one over the weekend after a week away doing a load of road miles. Straight on, no adjustment time, grins and slides, just great.
I’m very happy with my compromised SS Diamond frame. Maybe it depends on terrain and other things but I can’t see how less tyre choice and presumably more weight would improve it?
And Tim you definitely need to ride more!

Hopefully by the time that the Jones Plus is available, so will more tyre options. More weight? Depends what you’re comparing it to, frame will be the same, so it’s only a beefier rear tyre your adding? And compared to a fat front setup, overall a bit lighter. I’m not sure how your diamond is compromised anyway?
