Bikes: 1997 Rivendell Road Standard 650b conversion (tourer), 1988 Schwinn Project KOM-10 (gravel/tour), 2013 Foundry Auger disc (CX/gravel), 2016 Cannondale Fat CAAD 2 (MTB/winter), 2011 Cannondale Flash 29er Lefty (trail MTB)

I put Jones bars on my fat bike; I swapped out the stock flat bars. These bars came stock on the Surly ECR, so you can find some folks selling their stock bars off if you look on fat bike, adventure bike, or Surly forums.

I found I had to put on a longer stem to counter the sweep-back of the Jones bars.

I think the "Rest/Climb" position next to the stem is unusable, but the other three positions are legit.



The front "loop" is a great place for adding accessories, or hanging a handlebar bag (I use a Revelate SweetRoll). If I could find a bar-end grip with a hinged, open clamp, I'd attach them on the front loop for another "aero" position.
