TD-1 is nice.

The Lynskeys have that "broken" downtube thing going on which I'm not keen on.

Met them at the Cycle Show at the NEC - nice blokes and lovely bikes.

Ade W. can't decide if that is very beautiful,or very ugly !
the more I look, the more I er towards very beautiful tho !

If you're thinking rigid 29er, no-one has got close to the Jones for ride quality and capability imo.
If it's a custom you're after, lucky you to have that decision to make.. I was looking for something special a year or so ago and thought Sean at Vertigo made some of the most interesting bikes. The Jones was what I went for in the end - one test ride clinched it. There's some lovely stuff available from a lot of companies and builders but Jeff Jones has designed something that, if it suits your attitude or riding style, may be unbeatable. The more I ride it, the more impressed I am by what he's come up with.

Yeah there's something pretty about Ade's bike. It's nicely balanced. I always liked the styling of e-stay bikes.

I'm selling a lovely spangly ti front end if anyone wants to fondle a jeff frontage
I can't afford the rest of ti frame to go with it, so back to the material of the plebians (steel) for me

@tazzy *perk* more details?

Salsa El Mariachi titanium. £1700 for the frame, new ones come with a fits-everything 44mm head tube and the 2012 ones I *think* also are coming with BB30.

It's now got some new Crest rims on. It's had the most use of all my bikes this year.

I saw the Qoroz Mountain Won 29er at the Cycle Show last month and it was stunning in the metal.
It would be a right ol' decision between a Singular Pegasus (if I could get one) and the Qoroz.
Anyone know the price of the Charge Cooker Ti frameset????
Posted 6 months ago # -
So far here only 3 of the ti hardtails have one essential thing I'd be looking for, the XX44 / tapered headtube - top marks to Litespeed Salsa and Qoroz.
Tazzy, you not tempted by a steel diamond frame to go with that fork?
Posted 6 months ago # -
The VN Zion has a tapered headtube - seems to be a change for 2012
Posted 6 months ago # -
My v2 bike is coming withe tapered head tube should have been here two weeks ago
Posted 6 months ago # -
jameso- steel frame and ti fork would look foul unless I painted the ti, which is sheer blasphemy
may be having a full steel fat front compatable jones in the near future though funded by parting with the ti forks so will still have a bit of jeff in my life

I wouldn't bother if i were you tazz. I've been told them jones things are only fit for bimbling to the shops on.
