A surefooted, practical yet wonderfully responsive all-rounder that loves every ride. Buy if you want a vibrant, versatile and enjoyable all-round ride

The Genesis Datum 10 will take pretty much whatever you can throw at it, on or off-road. The spec represents excellent value and the ability to jump between town and country use positions it as a sound contender for an 'only bike' that you won't be sheepish about getting muddy on, while being worthy of a shine-up for the Sunday morning group ride. On test I have the base £1,899 10-speed Tiagra model, for this spec it's not a class-leadingly cheap bike, but the overall package is worthy of inclusion on anyone's to-be-considered list.
