For Genesis, The Tour De Fer 30 represents their vision of unrestricted adventure; the kind of bike you would pick if you quit your job and embarked on an impromptu round the world tour.
Build-wise, Genesis have dressed the frame with durable, no-nonsense components that they know from personal experience are tour/expedition worthy and should last the sorts of high-mileages for which the bike was intended. The spec list should, by all accounts, read like a cyclo-tourist’s wish list; even going so far as to include a Shimano dynamo hub! Expedition-ready straight from the box – just add rider, luggage and a strong sense of adventure.
