ONE BIKE TO RULE THEM ALL
Our original do it all go anywhere bike is back and more capable than ever before!
Commuting duties during the week then epic, multi-terrain adventures at the weekend, the Croix De Fer 20 is a capable and adaptable beast that rarely gets fazed whichever way you point it.
The heart of the bike remains a complete Reynolds 725 frameset, defined by its reliability wherever you ride.
We have however made a few updates to add to the Croix de Fer’s versatility.
Major updates to the cornerstone of our range include the ability to run 42mm tyres on the provided 700c rims, or 47mm tyres on a 650B wheelset.
Standard QR dropouts mean your 9mm wheelsets can keep turning for another few years – and the practicalities don’t end there.
The drivetrain has been upgraded to Shimano’s excellent GRX, featuring a 46/30T double chainset, an 11-34T cassette and RX400 derailleurs for reliable, smooth shifting.
Tubeless ready rims and tyres, flat mount disc brakes, a third bottle mount, rack and guard mounts and fixings for Anything Cages on the forks complete the package.
Adventure is meant to be spontaneous and the limiting factor should be your imagination, not what you’re riding.

Genesis is also the creator of a true cycling icon: the Croix de Fer. It’s the original adventure bike that’s taken ambitious riders literally all over the globe. Vin Cox rode 18,000 miles in 163 days on his to circumnavigate the globe and since then countless Genesis models have carried riders on the adventures from their wildest dreams; from Alaska to Patagonia, up 39 of Europe’s highest peaks, an adventure from Tehran to Kyrgyzstan and, yes, one British National Road Racing title thrown in to boot.
Since the Day One was released back in 2001, Genesis has come a long way. These days the range still heavily features the venerable Croix de Fer, but we’ve added an even more out-there bike in the Fugio, a monster with room for MTB tyres if you want to really push the limits and re-ignite the spirit of 1990s MTB riding with a drop-bar bike. Genesis also has a whole variety of utility bikes from the single-speed Flyer to the backswept Broadway via the rack-equipped Brixton and two E-Bikes in the Smithfield and Columbia Road. And let’s not forget the Tour de Fer, which is the spirit of a classic touring bike dressed in up-to-date components and the Longitude, a 27.5+ rigid MTB for those days when your imagination outweighs your common sense.
