Highlights

Clever cable routing
The optimized cable routing, going directly across the main pivots of the rear triangle, represents the cleanest solution for us. Rattling or chafing is a thing of the past – at full compression the cables remain exactly where they belong.

Optimized frame protection
Absolute silence – the only thing you hear is the sound of the tires on the trail. To make this happen in addition to the cable integration and optimized routing we also developed new chain and seat stay protectors made of a soft TPR plastic with great damping properties. Air-filled nubs with an outward tilt stop chain vibrations with great efficiency.

Brake integration
With the new Tyee 6 AL, the Postmount brake mount is integrated into the rear triangle. In addition to the sleek aesthetic aspects, this also achieves better transfer of braking forces into the frame. For 180 mm and 200 mm rotors no additional adapters are needed, just a quick adjustment of the Postmount bracket is all that needs to make the switch.

Bottle and Tool Mount
A good enduro bike of course needs the ability to carry enough hydration and the most necessary equipment for a tour or race right with the bike. The less weight in the backpack or hip bag the better. The bottle mount on the down tube and the tool mount on the bottom of the top tube provide the perfect basis for this.

Blend Alloy
The frame consists of at least three different alloys, which together create the optimum combination of stiffness, strength and weight. Frame parts such as rockers and axles are made of 7075 T6 aluminium, which has a very high strength. For the tubes of the frame a more fatigue-resistant 6066 T6 aluminium is used. In addition, the milled and forged parts are made of 6061 T6 aluminium. Blend Alloy thus represents our special and unique manufacturing process and ensures the optimum performance of the lightweight frames.

Frame Sizes

The size of the frame plays an important role in the bike’s performance and, above all, in its enjoyment. Select the frame size you need from the table. If you are between two sizes, then you only have to decide whether you like it playful or smooth. For smooth riding, choose the larger frame size, for playful riding, choose the smaller frame size.

Size XL	188cm	202cm

Geometry

PROPAIN believe that an Enduro bike must be a true master of versatility. They achieved exactly that by combining a slack head angle of 64.5°, a very steep seat angle of 77.5°, a reach that gives room for movement, and a centrally located floating shock to concentrate the weight around a low bottom bracket. The new Tyee provides pedalling efficiency with lots of pressure on the front wheel on the uphill and an optimum weight distribution on the downhill. A characteristic that you will notice right away when you get on the bike and never want to miss again.

PROPAIN recommend running the full 29″ configuration in the “low” setting of the flip chip and the Mix and 27.5″ configuration in the “high” setting. Of course, the 27.5 “and Mix bikes can also be ridden in the “low” setting, the head angle becomes even flatter and the center of gravity of the bikes moves further down, which will work especially well for purely downhill-oriented bike park laps for sure. However, the bottom bracket height in this configuration is so low that pedal strikes in technical terrain become very likely. This setup is therefore recommended for experienced riders only.
