In terms of riding on long tours with lots of trails, the Downcountry-Bike von Conway is an absolute banger. The scales remain light for this model, which is, according to Conway, at 12,2 kg. Thus, the Conway RLC FS 6.9 is one of the lighter Downcountry-Bike that you get for 3499,95 Euro . Thanks to a moderate 70 degree head tube angle, the handling is pleasantly balanced. The sporty riding position allows for very effective pedaling. One thing shouldn't be underestimated: In the uphill, the RLC FS 6.9 with its overall sporty orientation makes it really hard for on long tours with lots of trails competitors to catch up. With 5 years warranty, nothing stands in the way of a long-term relationship. Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon frame sizing runs big.
