The new Genesis Fugios are absolutely stunning

The new Genesis Fugios are absolutely stunning

In case you hadn't heard, Genesis has just announced its 2020 range and while it's stuffed full of fantastic bikes there's one that stands out a little brighter than the others - both literally and figuratively: the Fugio. 

Updated and upgraded for 2020, the Fugio now uses Reynolds 725 tubing paired with a full carbon fork making for a lighter bike that rides with even more quality. The Fugio is basically a Croix de Fer with an extra dose of imagination, and a bike that really comes into its own when you point it down that seldom-trodden path - it doesn't come with 47c tyres as standard for nothing! 

Better than that, the Fugio 30 is adorned with Shimano's brand new GRX gravel drivetrain, the first gravel-specific groupset ever made, and one that pairs a 40T front ring with a 11-42T Deore XT cassette to give you a gearing range that be the envy of all your riding buddies. 

But let's ignore spec for a bit and focus on the frames themselves. They're gorgeous. It's not an exaggeration to say that the Fugio 20 and 30 are two of the best-looking frames that Genesis has ever produced and will turn heads no matter where you ride them. Sure, you shouldn't buy a bike on looks alone, but if you did it would almost certainly be one of these. Plus, if we're honest, we all buy bikes because we like how they look. If you dont love it, you won't ride it, and an unridden bike is a very sad thing. 

You can check out the new Fugios - along with the rest of the Genesis MY20 range - over on the Genesis Bikes website. Or, if you're after one of your very own, you can buy them right here on Freewheel
