What is it? Any ideas?

i seem to remember these being sold thru a car dealership ,with
car manufacturer branding , think ford or vauxhall or maybee honda
tho honda had the gt tie in at one point
need to rake the brain cells , or late 90's mbuk's
 
not sure what they were taking at GT, but seeing the Daewoo inspired me to buy and build my GT

I like that! Looks like it might actually be a Genius rather than a Genesis. Google brings up:

Looks like the Italians are involved somehow, but is that a Union Jack on the folder? It came from an Italian classified site.
 
the bare ally ones have gussets and non integrated seatpost clamps though amd just look to be better made than the painted ones.

on the one i seen it had a plate between the rear stays with the daewoo logo lazer etched or whatever ino it
 
they had a bit of a splurge around 99/2000/1 or so
genius was the model ,that looks like a steel frame tho
pretty sure there was some stuff in the bike press at the time
if i get a chance i'll have a look see

but dont hold your breath
 
i'm fairly sure someone was making these bikes before dae-who got their name on it.
it may have even been called a genesis
they were quite a nice one and well specced too for the time

See, what's that telling you?

Facebook is the work of Keyser Soze.
