Genesis Croix de Fer Titanium Frameset  £2699.99

• The Croix De Fer Titanium is Genesis' unashamed dream do-it-all machine. Supplied with a full carbon fork to drop over a kilogram against its steel counterparts. It's not just weight though the sublimely smooth ride quality and unmistakable zing you get from any quality titanium build is present and correct. Not to mention the fact that the raw finish is a thing of unmatched beauty. Tube profiles are carefully selected and designed to give the new double-butted titanium platform a stiff and efficient pedalling platform, retaining the same connected feel and 'in-saddle' comfort for which the steel CdF is famed. The fully oval Ø28.6/35mm toptube and cleverly swaged seat tube are all engineered to deliver high levels of comfort. The large diameter Ø44mm oval-rounded trapezoid downtube, beefy S-Bend mountain bike-derived chainstays, tapered Ø56-46mm headtube and Ø34.9mm lower seat tube OD help ensure direct and efficient power transfer and pinpoint sharp handling. You'll also find Genesis have kept the mudguard eyelets, rear rack mounts and generous tyre clearances that help enable it to take on many different incarnations. The one bike to rule them all?! Complete it with carbon wheels, electronic shifting and Ti finishing kit for a lightweight, high speed go-anywhere explorer that gives away nothing to comfort. Or go for something more understated or eclectic the choice is yours!
