I feel that on the Jones bar not really jiving with the classic Riv look (except perhaps the Hillibikes!) but can't argue it's a great bar. Love the leverage of a wider bar when you get into rough stuff, too! Being that beauty tends to derive from function, at least around these parts, I'm sure after an initial period of getting used to it, it's going to look natural and great
