As well as keeping my eyes open for a secondhand Soul, I thought I’d look out for a Genesis 853 frame (or a Sanderson Life). I know its (possibly) not as good as a Soul (although I’ll remain optimistic on that one as at least some of you think it is) but if its 80% as good for a lot less money then I’d be happy.
Question is, I keep hearing talk (in old threads on here) of Altitude and Latitude. On the Genesis website, they don’t seem to have those models anymore. Whats the difference between the 2 frames ? I can only see Latitudes for sale at the moment (new on the BikeChain and fairly regularly secondhand).
Any tips on what to look for on these Genesis 853 frames ? Sometimes I see a number like 10, 20 or 30 after the Latitude. Does it mean anything ? And should I be looking for something post-CEN necessarily ?
