The Raleigh
RX1.0 is absolutely the best current value for a budget 'cross bike. For
a closeout price of $895, you get:
 | High quality butted aluminum frame with
fairly aggressive geometry. |
 | Easton
EC70 X fork w/alloy steerer -- this is a fork well suited for the RX1.0
geometry. |
 | BB30 bottom bracket -- no lateral give, so
this bike climbs like a rocket. |
 | Shimano 5700 105 shifting system -- near
Dura-Ace performance at a fraction of the price, with a capacity of up to 28
teeth on the back. |
 | $150 wheel upgrade credit: Trade in the stock
wheels for Mavic Ksyrium
Equipe wheels for an additional $300, and you have a race-ready
bike for $1600. Or lose another 140gms and
upgrade to Mavic
Ksyrium Elites, race-ready for $1800. |
The RX1.0 is a little too aggressive for the
comfort-oriented casual rider, but that's the whole point. This is a bike for:
 | The
competitor with a limited budget |
 | The performance-oriented group rider who doesn't
race but still likes to be the first one to the top |
Raleigh is pretty cautious about maintaining
inventory for bikes that retail for over $1k, so the availability of the RX1.0
is limited. That said, we currently have the two most popular sizes for
the RX1.0 in stock, 53 and 55cm.
