With these bikes, the saddles have been changed for a women specific model as well as shorter cranks and narrower handlebars being specced to better suit female proportions. Over ten years the range expanded beyond commuter bikes to include road, mountain, cyclo-cross, gravel, kids and fat bikes. If you’re in the market for a more porteur-style bike, the Brixton is where Croix de Fer meets cargo. Its 1x9 drivetrain keeps things simple, while the swept back riser bars give the rider a more upright position. The CDA on the other hand is less race and more sportive, with relaxed endurance geometry and massive tyre clearance for knobblies so you can truly take it anywhere. Front disc and rear linear pull handbrakes keep your speed under control, while the overstuffed springer style saddle and rise handlebars give the rider a comfortable and upright riding position. Whether you're on an off-road adventure or running errands in town, the Whirlwind has all your bases covered. V2100 from Genesis Bicycles is just what the doctor ordered for on and off-road exercise, and fun. The geometry is more aggressive than the endurance-oriented Equilibrium, but not quite as ‘head-down bum-up’ as the dedicated racers that are the Zeros. Our high-quality tires are made to give you a smooth ride thru the city. The suspension fork absorbs shock to keep the ride comfortable. The wheelset is lightweight with an internal rim width of 19mm that will take good sized rubber which means you could add some float to the ride with some high volume tyres. The Core 26.4 came fitted with 2.2 Mountain Kings, the originals not the much improved Mountain King II. I did have to buy some new pedals and I always carried my allan wrench because the handle bars would often get loose, other than that this was a dependable bike, I even had to outride a German Shepard one morning. Definitely not a versatile bike; this is designed with only CX racing in mind and makes no compromises - except for, perhaps, its two sets of bottle bosses. There aren’t mounting points for front or rear pannier racks; strap on bike-packing bags are the weapon of choice here. Some practically remains, with downtube bottle bosses (useful for holding extra water or a tool keg) and discrete mudguard mounts. The frame is fully carbon and the cables are integrated into the frame for a cleaner look and better aerodynamics. The steel tubes of these endurance bikes, with their ability to dampen the road buzz, make them perfectly suited to long days out in the saddle. We have a range of sizes and models available now, so if you're interested to see what all the hype is about, come take one for a spin! This variable speed throttle was designed to be easy on the wrists, and even easier to operate. LCD screen with battery charge indicator for on-the-go battery charge reading.
