Genesis Croix de Fer

[vanman]

Does anybody here own a Genesis Croix de Fer? I've been tempted by one recently as a go anywhere 'one' bike. I have only owned mountain bikes in the past and don't want a full on road machine as i'll be cycling on bridleways,forest cycle paths etc.

From what i've read the Genesis appears to be what i'm looking for but i'd appreciate some first hand experiences if anyone has any....
