The Propain Hugene is not for everyone. It’s got a short-travel brain and a long-travel heart. It also happens to be an impressive value with impressive custom-built options. In fact, Travis kinda wants to keep it. Because this is the first Propain bike we’ve reviewed here at The Radavist, allow me to introduce you. The brand was founded in 2008 in southern Germany. And the late-2000s vibes were strong with this one.
