The rear brake of the RX3 is plenty strong; it locks the rear wheel easily. The front brake is also strong, but the brake rotors are bad, and will pulse the front brake after a few thousand miles.

It's my wife's bike!!!!
Spud,
Glad to know that the brakes on the RX3/RXR are not inherently under spec'd. Actually the RXR was purchased for my wife. She's letting me ride it to do the break-in routine. After everything is stabilized and adjusted properly, she'll take the bike over! It really doesn't fit me too well. I'm kinda of crowded in the seat to bar distance and the seat to pegs distance. But other than that I'm enjoying the bike. |

I have the risers and the low seat, which I don't find very comfortable. How is the tall seat for long rides?
