Genesis Zero review

[samsbike]

Anyone got one? What do they think? I quite like it on the basis that the frame is not dumbed down from the hi end model and its got a relatively higher headtube and short tt.

No idea but I firmly believe any bike costing that much will be v good so it boils down to, do you like it and does it fit?

I'm sure it's a fine bike, but I'd be wary about the marketing puff. Genesis' claim that the frame is not 'dumbed down across the model range can also be taken as an indication that they only ever got one frame produced, and have simply painted in up in different colour ways. Yes, it means you get to ride the same frame as the pro team - but the other way of looking at it is that the pro team have to ride the same frame as the low end models. I've no idea which of those statements is more accurate. Like I say though - I'm sure the bike is perfectly good - the Genesis stuff generally is.

I think you are right - one frameset painted with different colours and different groupsets.

Not really reviewed much but it does look nice and its got a relatively high HT compared to the volare which is their other racing bike

Seems really good value now too.

Holy shoot that one expensive bike It should have an engine for that price

Bargain. Groupset and wheels would cost you £1700
