It is meant specifically for taller folks like me (I’m 6′ 1″) however I think people a bit shorter than me would be right at home. After a lot of research, I had decided on the Schwinn Boundary, however once I arrived at the store the one I had just seen there had been bought, and I was left without a bike. From 2013 until 2019, Genesis sponsored the Madison Genesis racer as part of their racing motorbike development. The Day One is still made by Genesis as a daily urban racing bike for enthusiasts of tradition. It’s now available in a steel version with extra city comforts.
These bikes are also enjoyable to ride and are available in a number of sizes, scopes, and kinds at reasonable rates. Modern 27.5″ with hard packed tires rolls over everything. Light alloy frame with 24 speeds, and mech disc brakes. There are, however, a number of points that make this a more versatile bike than the carbon alternative.
The Croix de Fer comes in three steel options (10, 20 and 30) as well as a titanium model. The Equilibrium and Equilibrium Disc are also endurance/sportive-focused bikes, and come with a steel frame and genesis mountain bike carbon fork. The steel makes for a super comfortable ride, while the carbon reduces some of the weight. The basics are there in full length mudguards, a rear pannier rack, and puncture resistant tyres.
While it is completely usable, it is just strange, and doesn’t look right. Nowadays mountain bikes tend to be flatter and wider, however the Incline offers a more standard handlebar more like my hybrid bikes.

But to us it really is just another example of the Gravel Trends we talked about last week. They have a program called BikesGiving where they ask customers to log their miles over the course of a year. When everyone turns in their miles on October 31, Genesis gives a penny per mile to a charity that’s hyper-local.
Tyre clearance is increase to 38c, there are discrete mudguard and pannier mounts and an extra set of bottle bosses is present on the downtube. Due to being disc brake only, the bridge between the seatstays could be removed. This further increases mud clearance and also adds to the frame’s compliance, providing better control.
Gravel bikes are what everyone wants right now, says Erin Fagan, the events coordinator (and more) at Genesis Bicycles in Easton. For Erin, being so close to the trail is a huge advantage since beginners are nervous riding on the road with cars. The brakes are used with disc brakes on the front and rear of the bike, making for a nice look. Our bikes are designed and built in Milton Keynes, but we’re willing to outsource production to Vietnam and Indonesia. Our frames are hand-assembled in small quantities before being stored.

Prior to Bikerumor, Cory was a practicing Architect specializing in environmental sustainability, has designed bike shops & bike components and worked as a bike shop mechanic. It’s hard to get passed the point that this bike has disc brakes on the front, and rim brakes on the front.
So when using the ride, emergency braking can be used to break the front and rear wheels simultaneously. The fork travel is 80mm, also made of aluminum, solid and reliable. In the actual use of mountain bikes, the stability of the fork determines the life of the bike.
These bikes will have rim or hydraulic disc brakes, but only one standard level. In contrast to rim brakes, disc brakes can handle tyres up to 30 c. Plus, the lightweight alloy wheels add to the bike’s speed and agility. The matte black finish with neon accents is sure to turn heads on any trail.
