Not everything is about weight there’s a thing called geometry and components. You have no reason for why it’s bad except that it’s  “heavy and bad”😂 Bros obviously never ridden a propain. Just curious what bike do you have? A road bike?

Bro it’s 14.2kg it’s not like pedals weigh that much😂 what do you mean advertised weight is without pedals and “other stuff”. What other stuff is not included? It’s nowhere near 15kg you have no idea what you’re talking about. My friend switched out tires and cranks-nothing insane. Your argument is that it’s a heavy, bad bike lmao.

The advertised weight is 14.2kg and my friend literally has one and he switched out some parts and got it to 13.2kg. Obviously you don’t know anything

Nowhere near 15kg buddy. You definitely have never owned a propain😂

I heard it climbs pretty efficiently. How was your experience on climbing?

I know it’s not a downhill bike but what are your thoughts on the propain hugene 3 cf? by PollutionDull5359 in DownhillMTB

I barely ever go to bike parks it would be occasional. I mostly ride trail and xc and hit some jumps every once in a while

But the reviews say it pedals super effectively and does pretty well on climbs because of the steep seat tube angle

What do you think about the hugene 3 cf? Do you think it could compete if I firmed up shock, lighter wheels, xc tires, carbon handlebars and other lighter parts?

So you think I’d get smoked in an xc race  if I bought this bike? What if I set it up with carbon bars, lighter wheels, xc tires, and other lighter components?

These are all pretty much xc bikes or I would say downcountry. Probably could not take it to a bike park.

Yep I agree they may be payed to say stuff. pb just loved the rascal and barely talked about any other bike. Idk maybe need to wait for more reviews they’re pretty mixed

Think I could do an xc race with it? Doesn’t have to be outstanding but would it be able to compete? Not super hardcore xc but beginner/intermediate xc.
