Genesis Croix De Fer 20 review

Mar 2016 · Guy Kesteven

Inspiringly determined steel ride with well-chosen exploring equipment. Buy if you want a tough retro-styled bike to open up a new world of off-beaten-track and gravel riding

Highs
  • Smooth-surging steel frame with well-thought-out kit

Lows
  • Tough rather than nippy

  • High price for tiagra gears

The Genesis Croix de Fer Ti makes a compelling case that titanium is good for every terrain.

Highs
  • Pumps out the thrills on bridleways and beyond

Lows
  • A bit of a heavyweight
