Over 15 years ago, the materialization of German brand Propain Bicycles coincided with the release of their inaugural model, the Rage. A thoroughbred race bike since its inception, the Rage has undergone six iterations over the years, each sharing the same PRO10 suspension design. The latest Rage CF model was introduced in July 2021, after two years of development and feedback from Propain Factory Racing. With a new suspension layout, full carbon frame, mixed wheel compatibility, and updated geometry, Propain aimed to modernize and evolve its downhill platform to offer riders a versatile, robust, and capable race bike.
