Genesis Croix de Fer 40 – for everyday life that can turn into adventure
The Genesis Croix de Fer 40 is the bike for those who want everyday life and adventure to be closer together. It works for commuting on a dark November morning but can just as easily take you out on gravel roads, forest tracks, and longer rides with light packing when the weekend comes.
Croix de Fer is Genesis's most iconic model. It was on an almost standard-equipped Croix de Fer that Vin Cox set the Guinness World Record in 2010 for the fastest cycling around the world – a story that says a lot about the model’s reliability, versatility, and ability to keep going when the road changes.
The Reynolds 725 steel frame gives the bike a secure and lively feel: stable without being boring, comfortable without feeling sluggish, and robust without losing its personality. Shimano GRX 1x12 makes it easy to use on varied terrain, while hydraulic disc brakes and wide Maxxis Rambler 45 mm tires provide control, grip, and comfort when the road gets rougher.
The Croix de Fer 40 suits those who want a bike that feels at home in everyday life but is never limited to it. A bike for commuting, gravel roads, winter rides, lighter bikepacking, and spontaneous detours without a clear plan.
Choose Genesis Croix de Fer 40 if you want a bike that doesn’t force you to choose between function and feeling. It’s not built to be the lightest or most race-oriented on paper, but for cyclists who want a bike to live with – not just perform on.

Build your custom dream bicycle with us
Consultation meeting
At the first step in the process, we would like to discuss with you what kind of bicycle you are looking for, and what budget you have. It is best if we arrange a meeting for this, either in the shop or online.
Quote
After a paid deposit or purchase of a frame set, we send you a detailed quote. At this stage, there is still every opportunity to adjust the choice of parts.
The bicycle is assembled
Now things are starting to happen! The quote is finalized. We order components and put everything together ahead of the build. Depending on your choice of parts, it takes different amounts of time to assemble the bike, but two weeks from approved quote is usually enough.
The bicycle is ready for delivery
You are welcome to collect your custom bicycle. We also offer shipping to all corners of the world. From our initial meeting, we have taken your measurements so that you sit correctly on the bicycle. Before handing it over, we make small adjustments together with you and, if desired, go through how to adjust and take care of the bicycle. Happy riding! =)
