Genesis Croix De Fer Cromoly Cyclo Cross Bike

The Croix de Fer is not intended to be a pure cyclocross race bike. It is more of a happily versatile all-rounder, built for speedy road riding and more capable than most drop-bar bikes of handling varied non-tarmacked terrain.
It has a subtly-sprung Reynolds 725 heat-treated Cr-Mo frame and forks, Shimano's 105 components and has compact 50/34 tooth chainrings..
It also has Shimano A550 disc brakes and levers.
