Frames
We offer frames as a starting point for your perfect custom-build as well as complete bikes as an example of how they can be specified.
Choose between Reynolds steel, premium grade aluminium or 3\2.5 titanium; road, mountain or single-speed — all with Genesis ride-tested and size-variable tube selection and unique geometries that give our bikes such addictive handling.
A guarantee for the duration of the first ownership means we stand behind our frames. Ask your Genesis dealer or contact us for any more information about component recommendations or frame use.

Altitude Ti
Cold-drawn, seamless 3V\2.5Al titanium. The highest Altitude. Light at under 3.5lbs for a 19” frame, stiff under power, recommended for 100-120mm travel forks and with plenty of mudroom and downtube guard mounts, all-in-all it’s a contender for most ideal UK trail hardtail for classic mountain biking, endurance racing and singletrack hammering.

Altitude 30
Reynolds 853 double-butted air-hardening steel. For 100-130mm travel forks and 70-90mm stems. A perfect middle-ground between race-light and all-mountain, the 853 Altitude is one tough trail hardtail, a versatile frame that has the overall spring that feels like steel should while retaining enough stiffness in the front triangle to avoid being bounced off-line in demanding terrain. Down-tube cable routing keeps the lines clean, losing a section of cable outer in favour of a low-friction guide that gives less cable drag in wet conditions.

Alpitude
Reynolds 853 double-butted air-hardening steel. For 130-150mm travel forks and 50-70mm stems. A go-anywhere moto-enduro hardtail, built to take on the toughest terrain up or down hill. A geometry that climbs with tenacity even with long forks fitted, plus a high strength-to-weight tubeset that is tuned to feel resilient and planted mean this ride tames technical trails. A lowered top tube gives added clearance for a wider range of saddle heights and the rear end has clearance for 2.4” tyres.

iO
Reynolds 520 double-butted Cr-Mo. For 445-450mm long rigid or 100mm travel suspension forks. A dedicated single-speed only frame design with geometry designed for capable handling when using shorter forks and rider positioning suited to seated spinning and out-of-the-saddle climbing. A slightly higher BB for a given fork length than the Altitude gives a bit more room to keep cranking on the climbs. Top-of-top tube brake hose guides make shouldering the bike more comfortable.

Equilibrium
Reynolds 520 double-butted Cr-Mo. Relatively stiff in the mainframe for a steel frame, yet slim and sprung at the rear for an efficient and comfortable ride feel. Sharing it’s geometry with the Aether, the Equilibrium is a wide-ranging, high-
performance road frame that draws its influences from a long line of steel racing bikes as well as modern sportive, audax and race bikes. Deep-
drop calliper brakes and eyelets for mudguards or a 3-point rack make this a bike that goes any distance.SRP £229.99 frame, £119.99 carbon / aluminium steerer fork
