A longer, lower, slacker frame improved looks & handling, but it's the new rear shocks that deliver versatile ride characteristics.
Now, the 2023 Genius gets the integrated internal rear shock design with 150mm travel, bumps front travel to 160mm, comes in carbon and alloy with “Super Trail” spec options, and improves upon a few of the Spark’s features. And it loses any 27.5″ wheel options, it’s all 29er now.
A sag and travel indicator on the outside makes it really easy to see if you’re near the recommended 30% sag -and how much travel you’re getting- so you know if further adjustments are needed. The design allows for easy adjustment of spacer height and steerer length, just add, subtract, and cut like normal…no need to remove or cut or change any of the cables and hoses.
Top-, seat-, and downtubes are made longer than necessary, then cut down to size based on frame size, which helps with manufacturing costs. Just two more photos to drive home how well they did with the alloy frame. Every feature of the carbon bike comes over, from internal routing to sag indicator to pop-off shock cover. Other than materials, they’re identical bikes.
In full Open mode, that extra chamber is used and the compression damping is wide open, making the suspension plusher and allowing for full travel.
