The Volant is a very Genesis take on an alloy-framed road race bike. The ideal entry/mid level race geometry road bikes with a racier look and feel than our Equilibrium range and ideal for those looking for a speedy and efficient introduction to the world of dropbar road bikes, be it racing, sportives or competitive rides with friends on a Sunday morning, heck, even your first triathlon.

In true Genesis style we have chosen to use round tubes and tried to focus on engineering rather than aesthetics. Overly formed and shaped tubes that exist only to give a certain look is everything we strive to avoid here at Genesis, for us it’s all about function, good design and keeping the product simple. For the design of the Volant's we carefully selected tube diameters, wall thicknesses and butt profiles and combined that with good geometry to produce a frame that mixes stiffness, comfort and weight in the right ratio to give a fast and precise ride.

All Volant models feature an oversized, tapered steerer compatible XX44 headtube which allows the use of oversized top and down seat tubes, providing maximum weld area in the right places and helps create a stiff front end. An integrated carbon fork is offered on all models.

The Volant 00 has a 6061 alloy frame and an 8 speed Shimano 2300 drivetrain to give swift and precise shifting and good reliability. Sealed bearing hubs will keep you rolling. The subtle minty blue colour is both stylish and contemporary.
