Expirience with the Propain Hugene Highend 29

Ludwig Döhl If you are interested in an All Mountain, you should put the Hugene Highend 29 on your wish list. Because the direct mailers have relaunched their Hugene in 2021, taking all modern trends into account. The rear end with the closed frame triangle works like a charm. We really liked the jaw-dropping weight of the complete bike. With 12,9 kg, the Propain Hugene Highend 29 is a real lightweight. The handling of this bike remains balanced thanks to a moderate geometry. The combination of a long top tube and low stack value will make you sit sporty on the Propain All Mountain. Considering that in the range under 8000 Euro, hardly any other manufacturer makes a better bike for the same specs of wheels. Nice! With 5 years the warranty is another neat feature.
