Loving this bike so far, Usually a roadie (I know i know) But this makes riding so much more fun, making the winter training a lot more fun! Only downside is the tyres are a bit unpredictable, never liked x kings so they will be switched out before long!
Feels amazing round Dalby as well as local trails, cant wait to do even more riding on it (Especially now my road bike is dead...)

    The new and improved Genesis Mantle 20, with added mud. Rode Ladybower Lite and Cutgate at the weekend. So glad of the new bar/stem and Front tyre!

    Looking good Mutley! New bars and stem are a nice touch.

    My OCD can't handle the non matching tyres though! Get a rear skin wall to match :lol:

  • Thanks!
    I thought my OCD might not agree with it, but i think it looks quite good! The performance of the x king makes me want to change it (Terrible OEM tyre) but the £'s i have are already saved for my racing bike...
