Right- I've got a great bike in my singular Pegasus-running with niner forks and Ss its a 20lb dream.....but I'm not super fit and dont race so I'm wondering whether a more relaxed geometry may suit my needs more
Had a go on a mates jones and loved it but can't afford both so thinking of changing the Peggy for a steel diamond and truss forked monster with the ability to go fat up front
So will I regret changing, will the additional weight be a pain, who will win dancing on ice, and what sort of demand is there for Peggy's in large with niner carbon forks?
All input gratefully received
buy a dh bike
I suppose it may get me fitter!
Dibs on the Pegasus
Never ridden a jones so can't comment.
Tinas- If interested drop me a mail albeit I probably won't be rushing into it- got another jones session coming up at cannock!
Any pearls of wisdom from the evening shift?
whether a more relaxed geometry may suit my needs more
but no one else can answer this only you can
personally it sounds like you already have the perfect bike for you, are you changing for the sake-of?
You may have a point- but I used to have a few bikes and am trying to get to one and the Peggy is pretty much a racey number and I was thinking a jones would be more flexible ie can run 29er, half fat or tourer
..but the Peggy is lovely!!
got another jones session coming up at cannock!
A Jones...at Cannock...
Does Tazzy know of this...???
🙂
It's all his fault- tried his spaceframe the other day and loved it
Next to try is his old diamond one which he moved on to one of the boys - I missed a trick there!

I'm doing a public service and de-valuing the brand to bring it to the masses rather than the beardy nicheistas 😆
and pop is just looking for an excuse to but another bike. The less he rides the more he buys bike bits to compensate. The answer is ride more to get fitter and faster to make the peggy fly. Not go for a tractor to justify a bimble 😆

Yes.
Get your wallet out and buy a Jones. 8)
I think my wallet has anorexia 😳
Taz you may be correct - you know me so well but I'm craving a bit of niche
but I'm craving a bit of niche
yeh cos a uber pimpy light ti singular with spangly carbon bits is just so common place 😆
in fact what you need is a specialneeds hardcok or stumpfker or maybe go wild and get your very own halifax filing cabinet. 😉
Haven't I had all of them!
And they all seem to be really fast after I've sold them!
...it could just be quiche I'm craving 😆
Your old Scandal is really fast now 😉
Ha- I tuned it specially- should ave charged more 😉

I guarantee there are less Pegasuses in the world than there are Jones spaceframes - they certainly don't look so odd though 🙂
I think SSS has a great point I should have both!
May need a dollop of patience tho'
Sam- is that really the collective noun of pegasus?
