Genesis Croix De Fer 60 e-Gravel Bike - 2026

The Genesis Croix De Fer 60 e-Gravel Bike - 2026 is a premium steel e-gravel bike with natural handling and smooth electric support. Its Mahle X20 rear hub motor supplies up to 55Nm of assistance for steep climbs, strong headwinds and longer routes. When the motor is off, the hub creates almost no drag. This helps the bike retain the direct feel of a standard Croix De Fer. A Reynolds 725 frame, carbon fork and Shimano GRX parts provide comfort and control on varied terrain.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Near drag-free Mahle X20 hub: The rear hub creates almost no resistance when assistance is off. This keeps the bike easy to pedal above the support limit and gives it the natural feel of a non-electric gravel bike.
• 55Nm Mahle X20 motor: The compact rear hub motor provides smooth support when your effort rises. It helps reduce strain on steep climbs, into headwinds and during long days without taking control away from you.
• Natural torque sensor: A sensor in the bottom bracket measures the force placed through the pedals. It adjusts motor support in line with your effort, which creates a smooth response with no sudden surge of power.
• 171Wh Mahle eX1 battery: The compact battery forms part of the lightweight Mahle XS system. Its neat design keeps added bulk low while supplying useful support for gravel rides, commutes and longer routes.
• Mahle eShifters and SmartBike app: Handlebar controls let you change support levels from the hoods or drops. The app also lets you adjust settings, check battery charge and record rides, giving you simple control over the system.
• Reynolds 725 steel frame: Heat-treated steel provides strength, durability and a controlled level of flex. It helps reduce fatigue on rough roads while retaining the stable handling linked with the Croix De Fer platform.
• Shimano GRX 2x12-speed groupset: A 46/30T chainset and 11-36T cassette provide close steps and a wide gear range. GRX hydraulic brakes add firm control, helping you manage steep tracks, loose surfaces and loaded trips.
• Carbon fork and 45c Maxxis tyres: The carbon fork cuts weight and helps absorb vibration through the front of the bike. Tubeless-ready Maxxis Rambler tyres add grip and comfort, giving you more control across gravel, broken roads and trails.

The Croix De Fer 60 helps you manage effort across a full route rather than saving electric support for one type of terrain. Its broad gearing lets you maintain a steady cadence, while the motor can reduce fatigue when gradients, wind or luggage increase the load. This makes it easier to cover longer distances while keeping the handling and feedback expected from a steel gravel bike.

Choose the Genesis Croix De Fer 60 when you need electric support without losing the direct feel of a traditional gravel bike. Its balanced build is ready for long gravel rides, bikepacking trips, endurance events and daily travel.
