Genesis Flyer Rant!

Get them to replace the sprocket, not the chain. The chain is a good one and then you can keep everything 1/32.

3/32, you mean? Why would you want to? A good ⅛" chain like KMC B1 means more metal sharing the load. Even a bad one still has more sprocket to wear down.

TBH I'm not sure there's a huge difference in longevity between 1/8 and 3/32 transmissions.
Good that's it's getting sorted, although a shame it had to be!

Still not resolved and the supplied mudguards lasted two weeks before snapping at the break bracket. Great bike to ride but getting increasingly frustrated with Genesis/dealer. Currently still not able to ride fixed and no mudguards - would buy my own but the bike is advertised as supplied with mudguards so currently refusing to.

You ought to get back in touch with Genesis

What else do you expect to happen at the break bracket?

If the 'guard is the same as supplied fitted to the Genesis Skyline, then no surprise that it failed, as did the one on my wife's Skyline. Just fit a SKS guard.
