Genesis Core 50 - 2011

Genesis Core — the aluminium hardtail that’s dead-centre, always on target. It’s fast, light and accurate with a trail-tested geometry that’s capable of taking lines that may surprise you. The Genesis Core is one of our favourite range of bikes here at 3 Peaks Cycles with lightening speed up the climbs and stable, confidence inspiring desending. Plenty of mud clearance and impressive component specifications mean the core range is perfect for UK cross country and trail riding.

Lower weight, maximum adaptability. The Core 50 uses 6069 ALX-9 triple-butted aluminium frame to shave weight yet retain strength. The Core geometry is optimized for the 85-130m of travel available and the overall low weight and capable handling feel is a potent combination on any trail.

Upgrades over the 2010 Genesis Core 50 include Shimano SLX 10 speed, (dyna-sys), transmission and E2 tapered head tube and fork.
