Lastly, the durability and longevity of Genesis bikes have an indirect positive impact on the environment. Every mile ridden on a Genesis bike means fewer car journeys, reducing carbon emissions and supporting a more sustainable mode of transportation. Encouraging more people to choose cycling as a means of commuting or recreation can have a significant impact on reducing air pollution and creating healthier, more sustainable communities.

genesis bicyclesGenesis are building a reputation for thoughtful and well designed bikes so it is fair to say that there had been a sense of expectation once we knew the Alpitude was winging its way to us. Product PresentationGenesis created the global product presentation for the world’s largest quality bicycle manufacturer. But more than that, there’s front and rear dynamo lights, so you never need worry about forgetting/neglecting to charge your lights. An internally geared hub goes a long way to weather proofing the drivetrain, as do the full housed gear cables that help stop dirt degrading your shifting performance. Not quite mainstream, yet still hugely popular, Genesis Bikes are a British brand loved by steel-aficionados and adventurers alike. Those looking for a solid bike that will eat up the miles should take some of their models into consideration.

In conclusion, Genesis bikes excel in terms of performance and durability. Their meticulous design, high-quality materials, and reliable components ensure that riders can enjoy an exceptional riding experience, whether on the road, trail, or city streets. The brand’s commitment to quality and attention to detail make Genesis bikes a solid choice for both casual riders and cycling enthusiasts seeking reliable and high-performing bicycles. The matte black finish with neon accents is sure to turn heads on any trail. The emphasis on ride quality, especially with their steel frame construction, provides a smooth and enjoyable cycling experience. The brand’s versatility caters to many riding disciplines and preferences.

Its 1×9 drivetrain keeps things simple, while the swept back riser bars give the rider a more upright position. Finally, for the bikepackers, the Longitude is a fully rigid, steel-framed mid-fat expedition adventure bike. Our main criticism of the Alpitude is its lack of acceleration; this is a combination of the short top tube, high front end, weight and slightly draggy tyres. None of these things alone would be an issue but add them up and they mean you have to push hard to get the bike really moving. You get out what you put in though and once up to speed the bike is a different animal.
