Combining the renowned ride quality of Reynolds steel with a modern Shimano GRX 1x12 drivetrain, it's a bike built for riders who want simplicity, capability and all-day comfort across virtually any terrain.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt the heart of the Croix de Fer 40 is Genesis' proven Reynolds 725 steel frameset, paired with the Amplitude G100 Chromoly fork. The result is a ride that feels smooth, composed and confidence-inspiring whether you're tackling gravel tracks, loading up for a bikepacking trip or simply taking the long way home. Steel remains the benchmark for riders seeking comfort and durability, and the Croix de Fer continues to demonstrate exactly why.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe biggest upgrade comes in the form of Shimano's excellent GRX 1x12-speed groupset. Combining RX822 and RX610 components, the drivetrain delivers crisp shifting, exceptional chain security and a huge gear range thanks to the 40T chainring and 10-45T cassette. The simplicity of a single chainring setup reduces maintenance, improves mud clearance and makes it easier to focus on the ride ahead when the terrain gets rough.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShimano GRX RX610 hydraulic disc brakes provide powerful and predictable stopping performance in all conditions, giving you the confidence to push further off-road and descend with control. Whether you're riding wet winter lanes, loose gravel descents or fully loaded adventure routes, braking performance is never in question.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRolling on the Amplitude G100 wheelset with Maxxis Rambler 700x45mm tubeless-ready tyres, the Croix de Fer 40 strikes an excellent balance between speed, grip and comfort. The wide tyres and tubeless-ready setup smooth out rough surfaces, improve puncture resistance and open up a huge range of terrain options, from tarmac and towpaths to technical gravel and forest tracks.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLike every bike in the Croix de Fer family, versatility is built into the frame. Multiple mounting points for racks, mudguards and luggage make it equally at home as a gravel bike, bikepacking rig, endurance adventure bike or year-round commuter. Internal cable routing keeps things clean while also allowing for straightforward dynamo and dropper post compatibility for riders looking to customise their setup further.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKey Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-spread=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReynolds 725 steel frame\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAmplitude G100 Chromoly fork\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShimano GRX RX822 \/ RX610 1x12-speed drivetrain\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e40T chainring\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e10-45T cassette\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShimano GRX RX610 hydraulic disc brakes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e160mm rotors front and rear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAmplitude G100 wheelset\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCentre-Lock rotor mounts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e12mm thru-axles front and rear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaxxis Rambler 700x45mm tubeless-ready tyres\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTubeless-ready rims with valves included\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInternal cable routing with dynamo compatibility\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDropper post compatible\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRack, mudguard and bottle cage mounts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBuilt for gravel riding, bike-packing, touring and adventure riding\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizing - \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eXS: 155–165 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eS: 164–173 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM: 172–181 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eL: 177–187 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eXL: 185–195 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Genesis","offers":[{"title":"Mauve \/ XS","offer_id":57358838923638,"sku":"GN11011XS","price":2499.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Mauve \/ S","offer_id":57358838956406,"sku":"GN11011SM","price":2499.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Mauve \/ M","offer_id":57358838989174,"sku":"GN11011MD","price":2499.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Mauve \/ L","offer_id":57358839021942,"sku":"GN11011LG","price":2499.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Mauve \/ XL","offer_id":57358839054710,"sku":"GN11011XL","price":2499.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/3065\/6691\/files\/croix-de-fer-40-2026-mauve-xs-1243363790.jpg?v=1781024233","url":"https:\/\/www.biketart.com\/products\/genesis-croix-de-fer-40-2026","provider":"Biketart","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
