    Summary

    Expirience with the Conway RLC FS 7.9

    Conway RLC FS 7.9 Review The RLC FS 7.9 is a "die-hard" racer that has been trimmed for maximum propulsion. Conway is taking no risks when it comes to its bike handling. The moderate geometry data conveys a balanced handling. Well trained athletes are likely to really enjoy the sporty seating position. If you love flying down steep, rocky and loamy trails, the RLC FS 7.9 doesn't really suit you. Other manufacturers build Racebike in the same price range that are more focused on descends. But one should not underestimate that wheels are extremely important for the riding experience on the trail. Conway knows this and installed higher quality than the competitors at the price of 4999 Euro . We like: 5 years warranty on the frame! Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon frame sizing runs big.
