Hello! Is this still for sale?
Interested in the whole bike, if you can post to NE England.
Cheers

Thanks for all the helpful suggestions.
I didn't know there were so many possible solutions out there!
I'll check them all out.
Cheers! ☺

I'd like to move my bottle cages a little, to fit larger bottles into my frame.
Are there any adaptors available that you'd recommend?
Thanks

I'm just wondering how many of you use a fat bike for bike packing?
I'd love to hear what you and your fatty have been up to and what gear you have.
Photos would be great too.
Thanks in advance

Hi. 27.5+ feels draggy on roads and hard surfaces, very difficult to get the pressure right for mixed terrain. I have a vagabond 29er and it feels like it rolls better/faster, might just be me, might be the bike. I have Jones bars on my longitude and it is again a marmite set-up, lots of hand posit...

Had one , just got the gearing right and a set of Jones bars and it got nicked , it was one of the most comfortable bikes I’ve had , it’s not quick but soaks everything up with ease , yep it’s heavy but the only time I’ve felt it was after 3 days of lifting over multiple gates , seriously consideri...

Thanks for all the replies. Sounds good so far! There’s only a couple of things putting me off... Sizing; The bike is a medium, but the Genesis website says I should get a large (I’m 5,10”). I’ve tried the bike and it seems fine (maybe needs a slightly longer stem). Wheel size; I worry a little abou...

I have one.

I think it is perfect for the sort of stuff we do, still not convinced about 27.5+ though.

It's not the fastest, but it is very forgiving.

I suppose the question is what do you intend to use it for?

What’s making you doubtful about the 27.5+?

You’ll be putting valuable money into the till of a bike shop during these desperate times If that’s not a good enough reason for n+1, then you’ll never buy it

I’m afraid it’s a private sale, not a bike shop. The LBS are only open for repairs!!

I have the chance to get a brand new (2019), Genesis Longitude, for a silly price!
I’ve heard good things about them but I’d appreciate any advice.
Thanks in advance

Max Effort My Vagabond suits my local riding conditions and my style of riding. I live a 15 mile ride of tame trails and minor roads to the Surrey Hills. My Arkrose is too uncomfortable, when loaded, to tackle the off road sections, my Longitude too slow and boring getting there. I have done severa...

Love mine

That is identical to the one I’m interested in.
Can I ask what you like and dislike about it?
Thanks for the help

I already have a hard tail/rigid (depending on which forks I fit), On-One Inbred 29er. If this isn’t even as good as that, would there be much point in getting one? You would not notice any significant improvement over the ridged Inbred - both would be about the same weight and TBH ride characteris...

I agree with the NorwayCalling about it not being light or responsive. Although I didn't get on with it. Always felt like Id pedal as hard as I could and it just went "and what do you want me to do about it". Conversely my CAADX is an over excited spanniel yelping "again, again, come on, lets GO, i...

is it any good - yes and rides nicely - however its not in anyway "light" or "responsive". Load it up with bikepacking kit and this becomes a moot point anyway. Also frame size is a bit non-standard, you do need to get a leg over one before committing. I liked my time with this bike Thanks for the ...

Thinking of getting a Genesis Vagabond.
Seems like a good design from a reputable brand.
Lots if good reviews.
Does anyone have any experience of them?
Thanks for the help

Does a 29plus go in the back

I know a normal 29er wheel can fit, but not sure about 29 plus.

I've heard the bars aren't quite symmetrical, and the welding isn't as neat as the Jones, but only what I've heard. For ballance, I've got a PX London Road and that's been faultless over thousands of miles. I’ve got some On-One Geoff, Mary, OG and flat bars. All of which are perfect. I’ve also owne...

It would be interesting to find out what the loop bars ribble are using. They might be a good halfway house between Jones prices and PX quality?

What’s up with the quality of PX/ On-One?
I’ve used their stuff since they started out without any problems at all.
