Genesis IO steel single speed mountain bike

Posted on
  • Only my second single speed build but could not resist the frame and fork which I bought here last summer.

    Finally got around to building this up, with all new parts, and the full spec is below the photo's. It cost me £325 in total to build, so before I run the eBay gauntlet I thought I see if anyone on here is looking for a sorted steel, single-speed mountain bike and if I can break even and get £325 for it? 🙂

    Specs

    Genesis IO steel frame (small) Bike set up got meat 5'9" and I would say that is the max. Range is probably 5'3" to 5'9"
    On-One rigid steel mountain bike forks
    Clarks M2 hydraulic brakes
    Charge Spoon saddle
    Truvativ chain-set
    FSA headset
    Generic carbon seat post and bars
    Rockbros pedals
    A2Z single-speed conversion

    I took the stickers off the 26" wheels when I first bought them, and now cannot remember what they are! I got them in a Chain Reaction sale for about £100, down from £180 if I remember correctly, but there is no info on the hubs or rims. If anyone knows what they are please let me know. 🙂

    Rides very smoothly and will throw in a spare set of inner-tubes and slick tyres.

    I live in East Yorkshire, but travel down to London most weeks so can post for £20 or meet up in King Cross area.

    Amy questions, just ask away.

  • Interesting, I quite like that. Sure they're 26" wheels?

  • This is rad

  • Going to drop the price to £295 for a few days before eBay!

    Let me know if you have any questions or want any close up photo's.

  • Interested in trading for an All-City macho man F+F (+ money maybe)

  • Ooo you bugger, I'm meant to be reducing my bike collection, but love a quality steel frame.....

    Size, condition, colour, disc or cantis, etc....? Pics if possible.

    Cheers

  • Hi mate. Tempted as I am, I really do have to downsize the bike collection a little. For anyone else looking to build up a do-it-all bike that will last as long as they look after it, I reckon that is the perfect frame-set at a great price!

  • Closing thread as off to the fun that is eBay!
