Cycle Genius CGX
Recumbent Bicycles

The Cycle Genius CGX
Cycle Genius CGX was Discontinued in 2007
The CGX was one of the least expensive recumbents on the market until it
was discontinued in 2007. They may be re-introduced one day, until then
the info on this page is history.
We do not have any of the CGX left in
stock.
Like the sun EZ-1, the closest thing to a recumbent bike in its price
range, it is a CLWB with a 20” rear and 16” front wheel.
Both the CGX and EZ-1 have mesh back seats with a large contoured and
adjustable base. I find them similarly comfortable other riders may
disagree. Both have Linear Pull ("V-Brake") that work well.
Both the CGX and EZ-1 have High Tension Steel Frames & Forks. The CGX
frame geometry is similar to their Higher End CGX.
CGX Components include Alloy Front & Rear quick release wheels. A nice
touch is the 28 spoke front wheel, all you will need in a CLWB or LWB
bike.
The Sram 3.0 - 24 Speed Twist Grip Shift and Sram Wide Range derailleurs
works well.
Size:
One size fits most Riders 5’ to 6'2". Shorter riders may find the
handlebars are to close to their chest, taller riders may find they have
to reach a bit. I think shorter riders may find the EZ-1 a slightly
better fit.
If you liked the CGX and you're looking for a comfortable & affordable
alternative - check out the Sun EZ-1
