The weekday rush hour — get out of the cars and see the landscape pass
by without a car window framing it. Cut and paste the terrain; make a trail
from the basics. With fewer limits on where you can ride, new routes
open up as you roll. Putting influence from every type of bike we know
into something that’s just right as well as ready for customisation,
the Day One is a bike that’s simply fun to ride anywhere; one that
rewards skill and vision. The same frame, fork and parts as the Day One
drop bar but with a flat handlebar for added attitude that keeps your
place in traffic and sticks to the right line on the trail.

This is why we love the Genesis Day One Flat Bar-and why Neil has one as his commuting bike

• The steel frame is bomb proof and very comfortable to ride
• There is very little to go wrong on this bike-other than changing the back tyre, I haven't spent a penny on mine in a year of riding
  
• Unlike most single speed bikes the Day One Flat Bar can take full length mudguards and a pannier rack-perfect/nessecary for commuting
• It has stronger brakes (V-Brakes) than the Charge and Mongoose single speeds we have had 
• It's made by a British company
• As you'd expect from a Genesis - all the components are of a very high quality
