Just had a gravel race last weekend, where Propain showed this bike for test rides. Looks really neat and great quality. Seems to me very much like a Santa Cruz Stigmata 4 (for a much better price). Nice builds also with SRAM and suspension fork (corrected geometry). If you‘re in for carbon, don‘t look any further - appears much more attractive than the usual suspects everyone rides (e.g. Canyon..😅). And frameset available… cheers
I’ve had a Propain Terrel CF since August and I’m loving it. When I chose the model, I was still able to pick the Adventure version with 2x12, which is no longer available on the website. I only have 445km on it so far because work doesn’t allow me much free time, and my boss is a jerk and doesn’t let me have bikes from other brands in the store. But back to what matters. I’m really loving everything about the bike. It’s super comfortable because of the high front-end geometry, and it’s very agile and fun to ride. Coming from BMX and Enduro MTB, the 50mm tires are perfect for what I was looking for--- a bike capable of doing everything and handling really rough trails. Since I’m tall and heavy, the 2x12 drivetrain is great because it gives me all the gear ratios I need to climb without killing my legs, and on flat terrain, it rolls super fast at full speed.
I think propain have done an excellent job with this bike. Definitely keen to buy one. Does anyone have any recent experience with their customer support and shipping times? Cheers

I was waiting for this video. cannot wait to hear the review
Nice to see an English review off the bike. Asked last week when the 2x12 would be available again.

Yeah, the first thing I want to know after tire clearance is can I get it in 2x
Dogs are the best 🥰
Your dog is really cute!
It is a great price and a good looking bike.
Hank Hill's favorite gravel bike.
That comment made me laugh! Well played! 😂
I'd like to know if you got that bag included with the purchase?

Looks like an interesting one.
Labrador?
If that's the selle italia saddle I think it is it's terrible. Way too grippy and also super heavy.
Yeah, that’s the industry’s it needs a saddle on the bike saddle. 😅
