••GENIUS LT CONCEPT ••GEOMETRY/TECHNICAL DATA GENIUS LT / PLUS The new Genius LT is the result of 2 years of research and development for one of the lightest all-mountain bike frame set available on the market, hitting the scale at below 2550grams (5.60lbs) including the frame, FOX Nude/FOX Float CTD shock and the unique TWINLOC XL remote control.
