As far as sizing goes I'm 5'6 ish and it's perfect. Probably best for 5'4- 5' 8.
Offers welcome. -
It's a freewheel Matt

Just checked the Day One sizing charts on the Genesis site. 50cm is a small, there is a XS below that at 47cm and a medium at 53cm.
In comparison- I used to own a Langster sized 49cm and it was definitely smaller than this Day One.
Hope that helps!

Pains me to have to sell this lovely singlespeed bike.
I am the 2nd owner after a previous guy who only covered a couple hundred km on it.
I put pedals on it and went round the block before Winter really started. Otherwise it's as close to new as you can get. It has sat in my (dry) garage since.
As far as I'm aware it is as standard apart from a 42 tooth chainring & an upgraded BB.This is a cracking bike. A really comfy classic steel ride. Probably my idea of the ultimate commuter?
Change of job recently means I will not be cycle commuting anymore.
That is the sole reason for the sale.
Why buy a 2016 one when you can get this for a few hundred less?
Reasonable offers considered.

Hi- I'm from the Glasgow area. Joined up here as it seems to be the biggest and most accessible SS/fixie forum on the interweb. I tried to sign up for Glasgow Fixed gear forum but apparently you need an invite- who knows how you get one..?
Bike stats for me are as follows- Specialized Langster (up for sale), Genesis Day One Disc, Specialized Allez (SRAM), Pinnacle hardtail mtb, Scott Ascent hardtail mtb. I commute singlespeed, roadie and enjoy the mtb when I get a chance too. Ex BMX freestyler in my youth.
