Strengths: THIS BIKE DOES IT ALL!!!! I'M SO IMPRESSED WITH IT I EVEN LET FELLOW COMPETITORS RIDE IT AROUND THE PITS. iT'S THE BEST "HEAVY" PEDALER I'VE EVER RIDEN. IT IS USER FRIENDLY, LOW STAND OVER HEIGHT, STEERS PREDICTABLY, AND IS STABLE AT SPEEDSWeaknesses: HAVEN'T FOUND ANY YETBottom Line: YOU CAN'T GO WRONG BY CHOOSING THIS BIKE, THE TURNER RFX IA AN ALL PURPOSE EXTREME RIDE THAT TAKES EVERYTHING YOU CAN THROW AT IT AND COMES BACK FOR MORE.

Strengths:
Build quality
Handling
Just about everthingWeaknesses:
There aint noneBottom Line: Build qaulity is up to the usual Turner standard,namely SUPERB!!
The great thing about the RFX is that you can ride UP hills in order to hammer downhill. The bike climbs well and it's supple suspension gives good traction on roots allowing steep inclines to be ridden without undue slippage.
The long travel and solid build keeps the tyres tracking over everthing, giving loads of grip allowing tighter lines through corners making 'single track' an absolute joy.
The RFX is smooth and stable at speed and on steep technical rocky and rooty downhills the geometry allows direction changes ruts with complete confidence. The RFX inspires you to look for more challenging descents.
After such praise you would be forgiven for thinking I'm related to the Turners-I'm not.
Great,great bike.
