The store’s website currently lists new bikes from Trek, Electra, Salsa, All-city and Jamis. The site said a retirement sale would begin Thursady and the store will be closed May 4-7 as trek prepares to re-open under the new ownership. Tomias Hinchcliff opened the store in 1974 “with two bikes in a tiny storefront in downtown Easton,” he said on the store website. Genesis bikes became renowned for their use of steel tubing and ethos for function over form.
Almost the antithesis of the Day One, the Flyer is sublime in its simplicity. It employs easily adjustable rim brakes, a single 42×17 gear, and it has mudguards to keep the spray off. Although the frame is steel, it’s relatively lightweight with a carbon fork and no excess components weighing it down. This is a bike that will zip around town without a second thought. The angles are steep, the front end is low and there aren’t mudguard or pannier mounts.

Here you’ll find our company details, answers to frequently asked questions and different ways to get in touch with us. As with the Day One, there are mudguards, rear pannier rack, and an internally geared rear hub for all weather dependability.
Genesis also features a wide array of parts, accessories, and apparel. The Fugio is a rowdier bike than the Croix de Fer, more suited to playing around on the trails and using the bumps as a platform to get some air. The dropper seatpost, slacker head angle, shorter chainstays and clearance for tyres up to 50mm wide on 650b wheels are responsible for this more playful handling. Other bikes might have the specificity to perform better in a single one of these uses, but very few bikes would be able to perform as well as the Croix de Fer in all of them. It is the combination of a vast array of mounts, a robust steel frame and wide tyre clearances that allow this bike to be such a jack of all trades. For those interested in dipping their toes into racing, or just want a sportier feeling bike, the Zeal range is Genesis’ entry level carbon option.
With its lightweight aluminum frame, you’ll experience the thrill of speed and agility as you conquer every road and climb with ease. Equipped with a road-style drop handlebar and 21 speed drivetrain, this bike offers precision and control, allowing you to shift gears with ease thanks to its convenient twist shifters. And with front and rear alloy single pivot brakes, you’ll experience responsive and reliable stopping power in all weather conditions. The height adjustable saddle & stem allow you to find the perfect riding position.
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. The Venerable Croix de Fer frameset has been a mainstay of the Genesis range since 2009.
These are the dedicated carbon race bikes, as ridden by the (now disbanded) UCI continental team Madison Genesis. The frame has internally routed cables for better aerodynamics and a wide section down tube for better torsional stiffness. Despite being already expansive, the Genesis Bikes brand continues to grow, with the British company striking out even further to the gravel/adventure cross market. Packaging SystemGenesis created a holistic genesis mountain bike packaging system that was impactful and highlighted specific features across a product offering that reached almost 3000 SKU’s. Erin says as they look forward to the next season, the store will be adding longer adventure touring rides and more varied locations, such as the Lehigh Gorge State Park part of the D&L and the Columbia Trail in Highbridge, NJ. The Datum comes with 32c tyres, which is a bit closer to the ‘road’ end of the spectrum.
