Genesis Line Up

Last week all these stars alighned to make this awesome line up!


CDF
Croix De Fer
Croix De Fer 953
Day One Disc
Day One Alfine Di2
Col Du Glandon
Equilibrium Ti
Madison


We actually ran out of room to fit them all in because we also had:

High Latitude Aline 11
Latitude Ti
Flyer

But we couldn't fit them all in..




Genesis bikes are pretty hot at the moment and we are told there are some more exciting bikes to come.

Brilliant Genesis Day-One Alfine Di2

This is a lovely bike. 


This would make a super premium pub bike! Or a super sturdy commute bike for the more sensible. Rack mounts, guard clearance etc. 


We are loving the new Di2 version of the 11 Alfine hub from Shimano. The best thing I reckon is the display unit. I can see some really cool applications for this in the near future, built into stems etc. 


It has a reassuring, quick and quality change and it's all set up from the PC. (Remember we can offer software and firmware upgrade for all Di2 platforms in store). 


Genesis are being quite adventurous with their specs this year and we have heard of some more exciting things to come. 

I am sure the owner with enjoy many electronically shifted moments on this steed.

Shimano Di2 Diagnostics Kit.

We are now equipped to deal with the new Di2 kit in house. This kit is a little box of tricks that connects your bike to your PC. 



We will be offering services and diagnostic checks for your Di2 equipment. This software allows you to completely set up the Di2 kit to your requirements. For example if you want to specify what the buttons do, you can and it also checks the software and updates it. 



Our Mekk Demo bike is available now and set up on a turbo trainer so you can test our Di2 system. 

Prices for the diagnostic checks and software updates to follow.

For more information give us a call on 01926 430211

If you guessed Cervelo S5 then you were right! Congratulations, you get to brag to all your friends!


Now, this bike is a stunner! Do you want to know the best bit? YOU can ride it!

This bike has been spec'd and built in store as a DEMO bike so the Ultegra Di2 can be tested. 








The battery and cables have been routed on the outside so customers can easily see the components of the Di2 group and how they link with each other.

Shimano Ultegra Di2 Electric Bike

We have just taken delivery of the Shimano Ultegra Di2 Electric Groupset bike. This is a great way to try before you buy. The bike is available via the store and can be borrowed to test this new system.

We are finding that the Ultegra system is more popular as it is much cheaper than the Dura-Ace version but as we know Dura-Ace has some advanced features about just a little weight saving.





If you want to come and try the Di2 bike, come into John Atkins Cycles or email info@johnatkinscycles.co.uk for more information.
