Genesis Croix de Fer 50 2025
The new top model of the Croix de Fer complete bikes is impressive across the board: Reynolds 725 frame, carbon fork with significantly more tire clearance than before, plus the Shimano GRX 820 2x12-speed groupset, 12mm thru axles - everything done right. The new in-house Amplitude attachments and the matching wheelset look classy with the understated matt black finish - the bike not only delivers inner values, but also looks great. We can certainly spend days discussing the sense and purpose of lower seat stays on steel frames, but viewing habits change and this optical trick gives the new Croix de Fer frame a more modern look than its more traditional predecessor. And of course many are happy about the internally routed cables, which in the installed form make far more sense in mechanical groups than complete integration. The shifting performance will thank you in the long term.
The fact that Genesis has a penchant for pop culture is clear from the names of the colors: Stone Temple Violets looks back to the early 90s, polarizes with its rich violet, but catches us completely. A unique bike for everyone who enjoys one of the absolute classics of gravel bike history, which is as diverse as the requirements: whether as an off-road bikepacking travel machine or for blasting along forest highways - the Croix de Fer always cuts a fine figure. And with slicks, thanks to the 2-speed drive, you can also roll along wonderfully in a group on social rides on asphalt without stressing yourself out. A complete bike from the gravel bike picture book...

EVERYTHING FOR COLLECTION
We do not send complete bikes. Simply because we believe that a proper size check, the appropriate adjustment and the handover with technical information are part of the bike purchase and are among our strengths. We have listed the bike here to show you what we have, but we want the bike to be picked up locally when you buy it. The Genesis bikes come in the original with modified brake pads and we convert them to European standards, which alone makes buying locally a worthwhile experience.
HOW IT WORKS
1. After purchase you will receive an order confirmation by email
2. As soon as your bike is ready for collection, we will inform you by email
3. Pick up your new bike in our shop: Schicke Mütze, Oststraße 119 (back building), 40210 Düsseldorf
