The Volant is a very Genesis take on an alloy-framed race bike. They’re mid-level race geometry road bikes with a racier look & feel than the Equilibrium range. Ideal for those looking for a speedy & efficient introduction to the world of dropbar road bikes be it racing sportives or competitive rides with friends on a Sunday morning. Upgrades over the Volant 00 are a 6069 ALX-9 double butted alloy frame & a full 2013 Shimano Sora 9-spd groupset plus Shimano hubs. The white green & red paint scheme has a distinctly Italian feel to it & the brown bar tape & saddle give a nod to classic road bikes of the past. This bike is certainly a head turner. If you require a non UK brake set-up (left hand rear brake/right hand front brake) please contact us at time of purchase to ensure correct set-up & adjustment. Key
