Strictly limited PROPAIN Rage 3 CF update

Product news: PROPAIN has given its downhill flagship, the Rage 3 CF, an exclusive update. Besides the new special color Strawberry Lipgloss, the standout feature is the optional, high-end EXT suspension system. However, interested buyers don't have much time to act, as the update is strictly limited.

For over 18 years, the PROPAIN Rage has stood for uncompromising performance on the toughest downhill World Cup tracks. PROPAIN is now giving its proven downhill flagship, the Rage 3 CF, an exclusive update. While the tried-and-tested frame DNA remains unchanged, the new special edition color, Strawberry Lipgloss, makes a striking visual statement. Anyone wanting to secure this new color should act fast: the number of frames in this version is strictly limited.

PROPAIN Rage 3 CF Update: EXT suspension for maximum control

A key technical highlight of the update is the separately selectable suspension from the renowned Italian manufacturer EXT. The EXT Vaia Dual Crown upside-down fork offers 170 to 200 mm of travel. The HS3 air spring system with two positive chambers combines exceptional responsiveness with reliable bottom-out resistance. Thanks to the cam-stem design, the offset can be adjusted between 44 and 48 mm via a single crown.

The EXT Arma V4 Coil Shock steel spring damper features a position-dependent PSR system to prevent harsh rebound and externally adjustable HBC damping for the last 20% of the travel. The DLC coating on the piston rod effectively protects against friction. Both the Strawberry Lipgloss frame and the EXT components can be selected independently in the PROPAIN configurator.
