They're great, but if you're running gears it's pretty much Dual Control only - anything else is pretty kludgy. On the other hand, H-bars make DC levers make sense, which is pretty impressive.

The Titec ones are a good price, but by God they're ugly. But the shape of the Titecs means that they're a direct swap for your existing bars - the Jones ones need running on a slightly longer stem for the full effect.

Damn and I just choose to get xtr pods and seperate Formula brakes over the dual control. Wish I hadn't now as I want to try these. Might get the titec ones and give them a go.

I'm using XO shifters and hope brakes, not officially recommended by Jones but it's what he uses on one of his and I have no complaints either!

I'd say get the titec ones, or have a word with Biff at the Outcast (he imports Jones) and see is he has any Jones going cheap (he sometimes has some ex demo, or last years models)

The nice thing about the DC setup is that you can shift right from the ends of the bars.

Biff's got some bars you can have for three grand, including a bike ;-)
