Strengths: Complete comfort, light weight, can handle the toughest terrain with ease.Weaknesses: It has a weakness? If it does I haven't found it yet. I've done just about everything to this thing and it hasn't failed at all.Bottom Line: Bottom line is you'd be nuts not to buy this bike! You can throw anything at it and it will just keep on going. It's lightweight frame and components allows you to throw the bike around whenever and wherever you need to. With the carbonfibre seat stay, not only does it strengthen it but it absorbs most of the bumps you come across. Making it one of the most comfortable rides you'll ever have. Overall this bike is great for anything from weekend trails to full on racing and you won't be dissapointed in the slighest.
Favorite Trail: Parklands
Duration Product Used: 6 months
Purchased At: Cycle World
Similar Products Used: I had an apollo racline years ago but compared with the rxc 2 it falls way short.

Strengths: Solid Frame with aggressive geometry, good for racing & general shenanigans. lightweight. frame is very stiff around the BB. all power from the pedals goes straight to the rear wheel makes for good climbing and fast acceleration. responsive through corners, turns fast.Weaknesses: None so far (although i did break the free wheel, probably from chain slip)Bottom Line: Awesome bike. hasn't failed me once after a year of hard riding & even a couple of races.
if i had the $ would have gone for the RXC1 for the better components, Bought this bike on special & for the price paid the components are pretty good. I'll just upgrade parts as i break them.
If your just starting out but think you may begin racing then this is a good buy.
Favorite Trail: you yangs

Similar Products Used: First 'real' MTB so no comparison. Did have an old Malvern star MTB which i used to beat around & this is a dream compared to that.
