I don't own this bike but i am thinking about purchasing it and i can't find many details on the web. All i've managed to find is the Raw 2 and Raw 3 and i'm not sure which features the Raw DX has. Is it like the Raw 3 with adjustable suspension and hydraulic breaks? Does it have lock-out? Can the front wheel have quick release? I am quite set on buying this bike, i just want to know more about it because i'd like to be able adjust the suspension for roads or lock it out completely. Also how would this be done anyway? Does it require turning the spring or is there something on the handlebars to adjust it? And what are the differences between this bike compared to the Raw 2 and Raw 3?
Any help or details would be greatly appreciated.
both wheels have quck release, the fork does not have lockout and the brakes are mechanical. tis a very uncomfortable bike on the road especially if you tilt the angle of hte seat back.....
its not the best bike in the world but its far from being the worst. worth 5 i think. theres lots of scope for upgrades anyway so thats a good thing :)

I've got the exact same bike and thinks its brilliant. A few things that can be changed but for a starter very good, i'm impressed with mine.

Nice entry level bike. I started off with a Saracen Havoc so they are not bad bikes.
