Now with normal cable routing! “New” or “refreshed” bike models often get all sorts of questionable hype. Brands play fast and loose with stats and make claims about added stiffness or compliance, or (dubiously) both. With the latest edition of the Tyee, Propain keeps things remarkably simple: it’s the same frame, now with holes for traditional internal cable routing instead of the mandatory through-headset routing that the previous version sported. The new carbon frame also features an updated brake mount which should lead to less caliper/frame interference. The new Tyee has the same travel (160 millimeters out back) and the same geometry as the old version, but it is available in more build options, and those builds are customizable with Propain’s excellent web tool. I’ve been riding the Tyee 6.1 in a nice mix of terrain; everything from shuttle laps to long backcountry wanders, and it’s stood out as a neutral, easy-to-love machine. Propain Tyee Details, Travel: 160 mm (rear) 170 mm (front), Wheel Size: 29” or Mixed 29”/27.5”, Size Tested: Large, Build Tested: Custom, Head Tube Angle: 63.9°, Measured Weight: 34.2 lbs (15.51 kg), MSRP starting at: $3,999

The Tyee is not a bike that particularly excels in one area but one that makes for a good time across a wide variety of trail scenarios.
