The Genesis Croix De Fer 10 Gravel Bike - 2026 is a steel gravel bike built for durability, load carrying, and mixed terrain riding. Its Mjolnir CrMo frame and CrMo fork provide strength and long-term reliability while maintaining a smooth ride feel on rough ground. A Shimano Cues 2x9 drivetrain delivers a wide gear range for varied terrain, and Maxxis Rambler 700x45c tubeless-ready tyres improve grip and reduce puncture risk.Key Features and Benefits:Mjolnir CrMo steel frame: This frame uses chromoly steel tubing that is known for its strength and fatigue resistance. It handles repeated stress without weakening, which increases long-term durability. This results in a bike that remains stable and reliable over years of use on mixed terrain and loaded rides.CrMo fork construction: The steel fork adds compliance compared to stiffer materials, helping to absorb vibration from rough surfaces. This reduces strain on your hands and arms over longer rides. The outcome is improved comfort and better control on uneven ground.Shimano Cues 2x9 drivetrain: A 46-32T chainset paired with an 11-36T cassette creates a wide and practical gear range. Lower gears support climbing with less effort, while higher gears maintain speed on flat sections. This ensures efficient pedalling across varied terrain without large gaps between gears.TRP Spyre mechanical disc brakes: Dual-piston mechanical calipers apply even pressure on both sides of the rotor. This improves braking consistency and reduces pad wear. The result is controlled stopping in all weather conditions with simple cable-based maintenance.Amplitude GR100 rims with 32H hubs: Strong rims combined with 32-hole hubs increase wheel durability and load capacity. This supports bikepacking setups and rough use without frequent wheel issues. The outcome is a stable wheelset that holds alignment under load.Maxxis Rambler 700x45c tubeless-ready tyres: These wide gravel tyres offer increased surface contact for grip on loose terrain. Tubeless compatibility allows lower pressures and reduces punctures from small debris. This leads to improved traction, comfort, and fewer interruptions during rides.This bike supports consistent performance across long distances and mixed surfaces. The steel frame and fork reduce fatigue from rough ground, while the wide gearing keeps pedalling efficient on climbs and flats. The tyre clearance and tubeless-ready setup improve grip and reduce puncture risk, helping maintain momentum over varied terrain. Each component works together to provide a dependable platform for regular use and extended rides.The Croix De Fer 10 offers a practical balance of durability, control, and low-maintenance performance. It suits riders who want a reliable gravel bike that handles daily use, longer routes, and changing conditions with ease.Size Guide:X-SMALL - 156 to 164cmSMALL - 164 to 172cmMEDIUM - 171 to 179cmLARGE - 178 to 186cmX-LARGE - 185 to 193cm
