Korbin riding our Jones Plus SWB and LWB bike through the woods, fast. 

Great, thank you for your support! Let us know if you have any questions.

Minion DHF available in that size, as well as Bontrager XR4, and a bunch of others in 29x2.8

Compete opposites?

Not really "squirmy" at all, the wide rims and wide tires at low pressure (12psi) have tons of grip in the corners and absorb the bumps great. If anything, these tires are much more stable and track the ground significantly better than other "mountain bikes" I've ridden with 2.4" tires and narrow rims.

@@Veloperator thanks for the response, I was thinking primarily when the bike is leaned, does it squirm when angled? Many claim that is the primarily reason why DH bikes almost never go bigger than 2.4" since then tires start squirming in corners (?).

From all the different bikes with different tires and rims, I have found quite the opposite. I find the tight and/or award corners where you are really leaning the bike over is where the wide rims and tires truly shine! The wide rims allow me to run low pressure without the tire folding and squirming, because of this I have a lot more traction and can really lean and push the bike through the corners. With the narrower tires and rims, I have to run higher pressure to prevent the tire from folding off the rim. With more pressure, the smaller tires have less traction, and with less traction, I lose confidence in my bike and I have to go slower through the corners. I think the reason "why DH bikes almost never go bigger than 2.4" is because they keep the same narrow rim width and put wider tires on, then the tire will just squirm and fold over if you lean into hard into corner. I believe DH and Enduro style bikes will start to have wider rims and wider tires (seems like they already have started a little) as time goes on and they realize; wide rims + wide tires + lower pressure = more traction, less rolling resistance, and a faster and safer ride. -KJ

@@Veloperator thanks for the detailed response, I left another related question on another video - would your geometry function with regular mtb wheels and tires for mtb application, specifically Jones bikes being more upright and having less loading by bodyweight over front tire? If I would run a Jones with regular wheels and tires would the front end be more prone to slide outs?
