Jones H-Bar

 Jones H-Bar

The Jones SG 2.5 Aluminum Loop H-Bar

There are many advantages of a Jones bar. With a lot of hand positions, wrist and hand issues for long distance are diminished. The upright position is better for touring.  The bars are 710mm wide (there is a 660mm bar available) ... so storage and transport of the bike can be a bit of a challenge but riding has never been a problem because of the width.

The Jones H-Bar reviews show that many people report their 'wrist' issues have been resolved using them.   If your current bicycle is a flatbar, installing a Jones H-Bar is easy.  The brakes and shifters should work with no changes.  

Replacing drop bars with a Jones H-Bar does require changing the brake levers and shifters.
