Wow, if they're going to race on Reynolds 953, I'll doff my cap to them.

Very highly doubt it's a re as Genesis haven't released any info on the 953 till now.

There's been quite a lot of chatter about this steel bike from Gene.

See last issue of Rouleur for an excellent article about the bike, the tubes and the why-for

Couldnt the brake be a center pull afair, with the cable going through the headtube. Would look good with the Cervelo style TT routing.

5 days ago, they were hinting it for over half a year.

Much as I like the Genisis and love the Super Acciaio, what's the point of using steel when you carbon gives you more design flexibility, is lighter and probably now cheaper?

steel is real innit

I agree, so it mean one thing; marketing, as displayed by amey above who now believed that steel is as good as carbon and are getting rid of his Cannondale.

nah brah, caad 10 stays, i was just trolling :P love carbon/steel/alu if its well made

Speaking of well made aluminum, this looks well promising: http://road.cc/content/feature/73734-dom-mason-kinesis-alloy-road-bikes-are-here-stay

^^^^ Headtubes are horrid.

Read the Roleur article, quite interesting. The tubing has been developed specifically for genesis by reynolds. One of the main advantages was that Reynolds dies are highly customizable and depending on tubing shapes / sizes there was the ability to fine tune the stiffness / ride quality to a higher degree than a carbon frame

Nice frame - don't like the graphics / paint job.

^^^^ Amazing! Prolly finds so many incredible bikes

The owner is "on here"...

Yes, but at least with that you're talking about bringing the cost down. Plus Kenesis make "UK bikes".

This too looks interesting:

Read the Roleur article.

Fair play I haven't yet, but will.

EDIT: is there a way of reading it without paying £10?

No, fake and a repost from the correct thread.

How many times do I need to see that fucking shit 'glass' bike

some of the comments.... wow.

I know, it's like having a conversation with myself.

^ rep.

I kind of doubt this. I mean, if we compare to high-end carbon frames like BMC etc? I though the point of high end carbon was exacly the same (fine tuning tubes). And I'd assume carbon does this even stiffer, lighter etc.

Just look at what argonaut is doing.

As in they've moved into carbon because of the degree of flexibility in design?

quite a porny shot (the rest are too dark imo)

amey Feel is real innit

Fixed
