interested in opinions and experience of genesis crois de fer...
As a commute bike, great.
Vapour is what you want....no heavy disc brakes and heavy cro-mo frame/forks but all the eyelets and mounts for racks and mudguards.
Took delivery of my 2011 Vapour last week and had a fun commute home on my local singletrack. Can't believe how capable the bike was off-road!
anybody know the weight of the cdf?
If you need to ask......
I asked the same last week.
Some good info and reviews here: http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/croix-de-fer
Apologies for the resurrection/hijack:
Love, I saw you were selling a Day Cross with shimano cantis on it. did you find the cantis improved the clearance between the pad and the rim considerably? Any problems with judder?
I've not had a chance to ride mine in anger yet but I've noticed a bit of brake rub just pissing about on the pavement..
Cheers!
