Jeff Jones on Plus Bikes

David started mountain biking in the 90’s, by which he means “Ineptly jumping a Saracen Kili Racer off anything available in a nearby industrial estate”. After growing up and living in some extremely flat places, David moved to Yorkshire specifically for the mountain biking. This felt like a horrible mistake at first, because the hills are so steep, but you get used to them pretty quickly. Previously, David trifled with road and BMX, but mountain bikes always won. He’s most at peace battering down a rough trail, quietly fixing everything that does to a bike, or trying to figure out if that one click of compression damping has made things marginally better or worse. The inept jumping continues to this day.

    This really reminds me of the stuff Geoff Apps was creating ( 70’s) and still is doing. Really interesting

    Doesn’t this just feel ‘right’? I can see myself keeping hold of my 2007 Orange 5 – steep, short, light, fantastic – and justifying one of these as something genuinely different, necessary – no, critical! That’s my n+1 bike sorted, thanks Jeff!

    Summary

    That bike I sold you for $9000. Turns out I got the design wrong.

    But should you have another $9000 lieing around….

    Summary

    I’m always looking to make the best bike I can.
    All my bikes are well worth a test ride (with an open mind).
