Genesis have released the first details and images of their new line up for 2010. Despite the bikes being the 2010 range for Genesis, they are actually released this coming September so you don’t have to wait as long as initially thought.
It looks like Genesis will be returning to the road bike market with their 2010 bike lineup. The Aether 10 and Aether 20 are the first bikes in the Genesis 2010 lineup racing bikes.
The Aether design is really best suitted for daily commuting or training. Both features carbon forks as well as an ALX-9 lightweight, aluminium frame. However, to get the best, you have to pay for the best. The cheapest of the two models, the Aether 10, costs £599.99 and features quality parts from Shimano and Sora. If you would prefer to go for the other model, the Aether 20, it will cost you another £200 extra. As part of your £799.99, your bike will feature a range of Shimano Tiagra and Sora parts.
The next bike in their lineup is called Vapour. This one will set you back £849.99 and has a ALX-9 6069 aluminium frame. To go alongside your lightweight frame, you also get a mix of Shimano Tiagra and Sora parts, plus a new front hanger mount, designed by Genesis to supply better braking.
The final road bike on Genesis’ list is the Flyer. This one features an extensive range of stylish features, not to mention being a singlespeed bike. This particular model features a white chain, chrome cable clips, all attached to a Reynolds 520 steel framework. This amazingly good looking bike will cost you £599.99, not a bad price really. One odd thing about this bike is that is comes with nothing to attach your bike accessories, it seems that Genesis assumes that people riding this bike don’t get thirsy or sweat through their cycle clothing.
The road bikes that Genesis announced were just a taster for the massive number of mountain bike models also detailed. The first one of the list, the Core, comes in two different varieties. There is the Core 40 which will cost £999.99 and then there’s the more expensive Core 50 which costs £1,199.99.
The next one up is the Alpitude costing £1,699.99, not to be mistaken with the Altitude, features a Reynolds 853 steel frame, perfect for long trails.
For a cheaper mountain bike, you should be looking towards the iO. This bike comes in two different versions, the singlespeed, costing £599.99, or the eight-speed version for £1,099.99. A Reynolds 520 steel frame comes as standard with both of these models.
The final bike in the lineup is the Altitude, and it comes in 5 different models. Built with the Reynolds 520 steel frame, these two models are the cheapest, the Altitude 00, costing £799.99 and the Altitude 10 costing around £999.99. As the altitude number goes higher, so does the price, the next up is the Altitude 20. This one will set you back £1,449.99, but atleast you get the quality of a Reynolds 853 steel frame. Glacing over the 4th model, the fifth and final one is the Altitude Ti, also the most expensive. This final model features a titanium frame and comes at a staggering £2,799.99.
