Происхождение
Ridley has built cyclocross bikes from near the brand's founding — Belgium is CX's home country. The X-Night name has been the race-series CX bike through multiple generations since the mid-2000s. The 2023 RS generation (5th generation) adopted aerodynamic profiles from the Falcn RS road bike and introduced patented F-Steerer integration into a CX frame for the first time, keeping cables completely buried in mud conditions.

Вердикт
+Достоинства
- F-Steerer keeps cables clean in the worst Belgian mud conditions — a genuine race-day advantage
- Aero-profiled tubing from Falcn RS makes it one of the faster CX frames aerodynamically
- Classified hub option delivers broader range without front derailleur on technical CX courses
−Недостатки
- Proprietary Classified wheel system complicates trailside repairs at races
- Elite Series (not top-tier) carbon means the RS is not the absolute lightest CX frame available
- F-Steerer servicing requires more effort than a conventional headset and bar setup
