Genesis bike ..any good?

However, we do have a list of nearest-match paint codes that you can download here. This is our complete known paint colour history – if it’s not listed then unfortunately we do not have a reference colour available. All colours listed are a closest match, but not exact, to the original and ideally suited to touching up stone chips in discreet areas. The best way to test-ride a Genesis is to contact your local Genesis dealer.

The best example of this is the Croix de Fer which can only be described as the Swiss Army knife of the road bike world, capable of on or off road touring adventures, daily commutes and really comes into its own on anything unpaved. If there are any issues with your bike, return it for a full refund or receive a replacement bike for free. Your bike frame & fork are protected under our Lifetime Warranty policy.

The Genesis Fugio 10 sits at the bottom of the Fugio range, replacing the steel framesets found on the Fugio 20 (SRAM Apex 1x) and 30 (Shimano GRX 1x) with aluminium, but retaining the carbon fork found across the range.

Packaging SystemThe packaging system had to accommodate everything from small replacement parts to complete bikes.

If bought on our website, please have your order number on hand. The other contact points were all Genesis branded and I think that those are all personal choice, especially a saddle and I didn’t get on with the OEM one particularly well, but it was fine on shorter rides. Yes probably, but during some longer gravel rides I have definitely appreciated having options to change bottle height to accommodate larger framepacks. Genesis bikes became renowned for their use of steel tubing and ethos for function over form. However, through our online retail partner Freewheel, you are able spread the cost of your new bike via a finance scheme. For more information please see the Freewheel finance page here.

I found I was right at the front during group rides, often buzzing past friends on the harsher terrain / wet muddy conditions. One particular group ride down an infamouse descent in horrible wet conditions I really let the bike go and it flowed over the terrain really well, although riding in conditions like that always reminds me of the advantages of an MTB front mudguard. We’ve partnered with Freewheel as a solution to offer Genesis bikes online whilst supporting local bike shops at the same time. Each online sale supports the selected bike shop with a percentage of your sale, whether you choose to click & collect or get it delivered straight to your door. Please note that Freewheel currently only deliver within the UK at this time.

The ability to run up to a 45mm rear tyre and a 50mm front tyre on the provided 700c rims increase the all-terrain ability of the Croix. The geometry encouraged me to ride downhill faster than I have with other gravel bikes and the smaller wheel size made handling the more unexpected genesis bike larger rocks a breeze. I found the reach on the Large frame (395 mm) and the stack height (613 mm) kept the front end planted and my eyes up so I could focus on the trail, especially during some of the more technical gravel / MTB trails that my Pennine terrain has to offer.
