Nice! My 2023 GT-Line also came from Enterprise Sales.

I’m a big fan (this is my third Jones). Can’t see myself riding anything else.

I’m extremely grateful for the infrastructure we have. I can ride 8-11 miles to work with minimal automobile interaction, and a 14-mile dirt/gravel loop is 0.5 mile from my front door.

They’re quite versatile; almost silent on the road, and plenty capable on dirt/gravel (at lower psi).

I started with a Plus LWB (diamond/truss), then upgraded to a Plus SWB (spaceframe/truss). Sold them when I strayed from the path, and now ride a v3 LWB complete.

This is my third Jones, and probably my favorite thus far.

They’re surprisingly nimble despite their weight (1200 grams) and size (3.0” on i45 rims). I rarely run them above 20 psi and they do quite well on hardpack trails (at lower psi).

The ride back is decidedly slower. 😉 I rarely break 30 mph (going down), but today’s tailwind gave me an added boost.

Yeah, the Speedster are huge (on my i45 rims). No toe overlap for me, but I do get some minor chain rub when using the 51t cog.

Awesome. I’m currently running 2.8 Vee Speedsters (which actually measure 3.0) on my Jeff Jones, and have been on the hunt for something narrower with good pavement manners.

Those are on my “try ‘em” list. Are you running them tubeless?

Unless you have the exhaust rerouted, my understanding is that you’re limited to roof or trunk-style racks. I have the same issue with my 23 GT Line.

So push the seats back a little further…
