• So ... 2021 is my 40th year, and I want to treat myself to a new bike. Specifically something steel that will take a broad range of tyres (and maybe allow me to switch in 650 wheels) to allow me to take advantage of the trails here in Spain but also climb the mountains on the roads. I have a budget of ~€3000, but preferably less. Currently my shortlist consist of the following, in this order:

    1. Fairlight Secan 2.0 (with GRX800)
    2. Genesis Croix de Fer 50
    3. Temple Adventure Disc 1

    I've looked at Mason and Bombtrack, but unless I've missed something they're more expensive than the above for little gain.

    Anything else I should be considering? Anyone owned any of the above and have any ideas or opinions?

  • I like my Mason.

    I'm still waiting on the rest of the insurance payout from the crash that bought it for me though, mind.
