I've just built a Genesis Croix De Fer 931 (stainless) I'd say it's capable of light touring, gravel paths and faster road rides depending on the way it's built.
I've got heavy ish wheels on it and schwable Kojak 35mm tyres and it rolls really nicely, not much slower on the flat than my Binachi with 23mm tyres.
This was me on my way to work this morning, cycle paths, roads and lots of drop kerbs, it handled it perfectly.
