Genesis Croix de Fer 20 725 (Diana Moss)

Genesis Croix de Fer 20 is the natural all-round model in the range: a steel bike for commuting during the week and heading out onto gravel roads whenever the opportunity arises. The Reynolds 725 frame provides a lighter and more responsive feel than the entry-level model, while Croix de Fer retains the stability and comfort that have made it so popular for Gravel and touring.

The 45 mm-wide Maxxis Rambler tyres provide good grip and comfort when the asphalt deteriorates or turns into gravel. Shimano CUES 2x10 with 46/32T chainrings and an 11–39T cassette offers a wide gear range for hilly roads, commuting and riding with luggage. TRP Spyre mechanical disc brakes are easy to adjust and service, and both the wheels and tyres are tubeless-ready.

Mounts for mudguards, pannier racks and bottle cages, along with cable routing for dynamo lighting, make Croix de Fer 20 easy to adapt for commuting, bikepacking and longer rides. Choose Genesis Croix de Fer 20 if you are looking for a versatile Gravel bike made from Reynolds 725 steel that can do a bit of everything without feeling overbuilt.
