The Core range is based around a 6061 aluminium tube set that is butted where needed with some gentle manipulation to ovalise the down tube as it meets the seat tube at the bottom bracket shell. There are strengthening gussets where the down tube and top tube meet the tapered head tube and the seat stays are an old school wishbone style, the lack of a bridge gives ample mud clearance. If you’re a petite woman, the Liv Tempt 4 would be an affordable option.

The first thing you notice is that the cockpit is comfortable, it just feels right. Not too long and well balanced with none of the ‘too much weight on the wrists’ feeling that sometimes comes on trail hardtails. Kit wise the Genesis is sensibly specced, Shimano Deore takes care of transmission duties with a SLX rear derailleur, brakes are Deore too. 20 years of bike enthusiasts,

using data and experience to teach you

how to choose the best bikes. In terms of drivetrain, the Liv Tempt 4 is a 2×7 drivetrain with relatively fewer speed options. On the contrary, the larger 27.5″ tire diameter is not as nimble as the Genesis 26″ V2100 Mountain Bike on tight trails.

In low gears, you can ride leisurely and watch the scenery along the way. With its steel frame and carbon fork, asymmetrical chainstays and 650b wheels with gargantuan 50c tyres, it’s perfect if you want a bike that will take you anywhere, but don’t want a mountain bike. At the entry-level, the Delta is an aluminium frame genesis bicycles and carbon fork road bike with endurance geometry that comes with rim brakes and provides a comfortable ride. We’ve seen a handful of cutting-edge performance-focused e-bikes hit the market in recent years. Automotive brands venturing into the electrified two-wheeled space has ushered in quite a number of these.

The Day One — its inaugural bike from 2001 — is still going strong as a low maintenance singlespeed with disc brakes and mounts for mudguards. Moving into the racier end of the spectrum, the Zero and Zero Disc are full-carbon road bikes with aggressive geometry. As the price increases, so does the level of tech, with Di2 included in the top-end model. From a performance standpoint, the Lotus Type 136 is equipped with the HPS Watt Assist Pro motor, a setup that’s said to be the lightest in the world at just 1.2 kilograms. According to HPS, the system provides riders up to 35 percent advantage on climbs, without disrupting the balance and pedal feel of a non-electric bicycle. The motor is housed neatly into the bottom bracket shell, and can very easily go unnoticed to the untrained eye.

The wheels are 27.5” and have decent traction; you should be able to maintain your grip on most surfaces easily. We’d have liked the wheels to be tubeless-ready, but that might be asking too much, considering how little you’re paying here. It’s made from high-strength aluminum, so it’s also very light-weight. Cornering is quick and precise with rear wheel drift easily attainable. It can be rated as one of the cheapest mountain bikes with good value for money.

If you prefer a wider range of speed options the Genesis 26″ V2100 Mountain Bike might be an entry-level bike worth trying. And the Suspension fork with 80mm travel absorbs certain bumps, allowing me to enjoy the speed without having to deal too much with the soreness and numbness from the bumps. Finally, for the bikepackers, the Longitude is a fully rigid, steel-framed mid-fat expedition adventure bike. The Genesis Tarn is a steel-framed short-travel hardtail with 120mm travel and 27.5in wheels, and is equipped with Maxxis Rekon tyres.

In addition, the relatively narrow tires of the Huffy Marker Women’s Mountain Bike 26×2.13″ performed better on flat trails, but were more difficult to control on wet, muddy terrain. It needs to be assembled against the manual, according to the relative requirements. The frame appears to be a Genesis Zero Disc – a model that’s no longer in the range – that has had an extension up front. Although Blythe says that he loves the look, people on social media have been less complimentary.

I did about 10 minutes of grinding with the bike on relatively flat grass, having my partner Eve on hand to keep track of me. Finally, the Columbia Rd is a beautiful step-through with a low maintenance and practical 8-speed internal hubgear. Perfect for pootling around town, plus the twin top tube adds a touch of elegance. Genesis has a lot of bikes in its ‘other’ category, so we’ve broken them down into Adventure, Cyclocross and Urban. If you’re a roadie, Genesis has a few models for you to consider. Bikes for all occasions, from all materials, that ride well, last a lifetime and look good while they’re at it.
