ENDURO Long-term Test 2014: The Propain Twoface 3

A couple days ago the waiting was over for our long-term tester Vinzenz. He finally received his bike for the 2014 season direct from the manufacturer – the Propain Twoface 3.

The demands we place on modern tires are high, we aim for good rolling performance, whilst still maintaining lots of grip and high puncture protection. Tire choice is always a question of faith and is strongly influenced by regional differences. We tested 6 of the current most popular trail and touring tires, both under full laboratory conditions and out on the trail! Our results can be found in the next issue #011 of ENDURO.
