There is no possible way a company can sell a bike with a proper drivetrain and working front and rear suspension for $150. I found a cheap 26″ frame off of PricePoint.com and built my own bike after that. Ride a bike you have built or one of a higher quality and you will realize how terrible bikes of this caliber are. Sure, anything that gets you riding is a plus, but as mentioned before you get what you pay for. An impressive fork at this price point and sensible kit are great and the wheels finish the package off nicely but the main attraction here is the geometry.
That’s why the majority of new owners reported that their Genesis V2100 was delivered with bent wheels, right out of the box. This may have been done on purpose, to match the out of true Promax disc brake rotor. The brake can be adjusted, and may offer a fair amount of braking power, but it’s difficult to locate replacement parts, as most brake shops don’t carry pads for the very bottom of the barrel components like this.
Next up is the endurance-focused Zeal, which is full carbon, so you can ride longer and faster with less effort. Bikes for all occasions, from all materials, that ride well, last a lifetime and look good while they’re at it. Now, if you plan on riding down Pike’s Peak, even the $1600 bike fall apart.
Combined they allow for a stable fit that adds to the helmet’s high level of comfort – the great ventilation and Iconic+ padding alone make it plenty comfy. Even when temperatures hit 32 degrees C the genesis mountain bike air flow through the helmet kept our head cool. By using its Air Cage design, its been able to strip down the usual foam bridges to help increase ventilation by almost 25% when compared the Prevail 2.
It has Smith’s VaporFit retention system, which can be adjusted vertically and horizontally to allow for a snuggly fit for all head shapes, which is a rare feature especially in aero focused helmet options. Despite its closed off silhouette, the deep channelling and vents under the brow keep your noggin cool and your sunglasses free of sunscreen infused sweat. You can adjust the retention band down to the millimetre, giving the helmet an excellent snug – yet comfortable – fit. This comfort is further boosted by the addition of thick interior padding , which is very soft against the skin. The Giro Eclipse Spherical helmet uses Giro’s MIPS Spherical tech, where MIPS forms the filling in a sandwich between two EPS foam layers.
