Expirience with the Conway MS 3.9

Ludwig Döhl The 100 mm trail on the fork qualify the MS 3.9 for on long tours use. Conway is taking no risks when it comes to its bike handling. The moderate geometry data conveys a balanced handling. The relatively high front allows you to sit upright in the saddle. Despite small weaknesses, above all, this argument is likely to convince: the Tektro brake will slow you down excellently. With the competitors you need deeper pockets for the same braking force. The guarantee of 5 years proves that Conway puts a lot of trust in its products.
