Genesis launch Longitude

Takes 3" tyres with just a single chainring on the 35mm rims it comes with. Looks good at £999.

On the other hand, would the former have existed without the latter? ;)

I quite like that flat green, shame about the red detailing though. I was thinking about building a 29+ adventure type bike for a couple of trips I fancy doing later next year, this looks like it may fit the bill.

Yep and it'll be on sale in September ... stonking looking bike. I suspect a F&F will end up in my shed after the summer.
I'm just going outside ...

Looks nice - though I think I'll be able to build my Rooster up with better bits for a bit less
