similar to rfx

[rockyt70]

I really like the turner rfx and I think that it will be a good bike for my riding style. Does anyone know of another style bike that they have had that would be similar to the feel of an rfx. Looking for a good pedal all mountain bike, just kinda like a do all kinda setup

[destroyer]

I think the Giant Reign and Transition Covert fall into that category. I liked them both. Could you describe your riding style?

any single pivot full suspension bike with 6" of travel should do fine if you like the RFX.

personally, i had a great time on my old '05 Specialized Enduro (it is now known as the Pitch), and i think the SX Trail is a great bike too.

i have moved on to bigger and better things though...

Give me a price range, If I were to pick a heavy all mountain frame right now it would be the Knolly Delirium T.

like around 3ish total build

The only bikes that are similar to the RFX are the Six Pack and Five Spot.

I've never tried an RFX, but a number of folks here swear by 'em. Recently, I bought a Yeti 575... and i'm LOVING it. The 575 would fall under the 'all mountain' category, seems to do everything well.

U got the letter's right, they are just in the wrong order..... it's FXR not RFX.

dude... Iron Horse 6point... fantastic pedaler, and super plush. 6.3" travel. I think someone is selling one on the board, who was that?

After contemplating this same question for a long, long time. I had narrowed it down to the '08 Yeti 575 or the RFX. I got lucky and got a deal on a RFX and haven't looked back or regretted it at all. Obligatory couch shot just for you:

i think i'm going to stay safe and stick with the rfx, I tested a 6 point and didnt really like it and my friend that I ride with mostly just got a pitch and I cant have the same as him

You forgot any Kona Coiler or Dawg.

[Sprockethead]

How about a Rocky Mountain Slayer SXC?



Sounds like you really want a RFX so you should get the bike you want or else you'll be longing for it after the new bike purchase. Buying a new bike is always fun

I've heard good things about this bike:

I've spent many years on a RFX. I had the first year production and loved it. The bike has changed a lot from the old school version. I ride an 05 transition preston/FR and love it as well.

Good idea.
