Speed, speed, and even more speed – that’s exactly what to expect with our Limited Replica Edition! Everything is geared towards pure racing: The Öhlins suspension, the uncompromising braking performance of the Shimano Saint, and the durable NEWMEN Beskar 30 DH wheels make you unbeatable. Your next victory is just a matter of time!
As with the previous models, the Rage 3 R CF also focuses on maximum stability and uncompromising performance. Thanks to the revised carbon layup, the new Rage is even more reliable and powerful, delivering the perfect balance of stiffness and flex.
The large downtube protector optimally shields the frame from rock impacts and other external forces. The newly developed chainstay and seatstay protectors, made from high-quality TPR plastic with air-filled nubs, have excellent damping properties and efficiently stop chain vibrations.
All of our installed bearings are made from high-quality stainless steel and are protected by a double seal (PROPAIN Dirt-Shields). Wear on the bearings caused by moisture and dirt is therefore not an issue.
Over many years, we have continuously developed our downhill bike with our World Cup team and roster of top athletes. The Rage has been rigorously tested on the toughest tracks and under the most extreme conditions. Thanks to continuous feedback and close collaboration with our riders, the performance has been consistently improved—with the clear goal of creating an uncompromising race bike.
Being the first bike in our portfolio, our Rage embodies over 18 years of development. Starting with the launch of the first generation in 2010, we are now sending the fifth model off to the racetrack. From 3D-printed prototypes to production readiness, our bikes undergo an extensive development journey. Each component is tested for functionality and efficiency and continuously improved.
We are 100% convinced that our PRO10 system remains the most powerful frame concept on the market. It is based on four pivot points and a floating shock that is activated by two counter-rotating links. The 215mm PRO10 rear end of the Rage 3 R CF, combined with the shock tuned to it, delivers a sensitive response and high progression. On the track, this translates to massive grip, plenty of support, and a feeling of never-ending suspension travel.
Our progressive design of the rear suspension allows for maximum sensitivity at the beginning of the travel, enabling the suspension to absorb small bumps and trail chatter seamlessly.
The ideal progression of the suspension provides quick and pleasant support in the mid-stroke range. This allows the rider to stay high in the travel on the trail while keeping plenty of reserves for hard hits.
The responsiveness of the rear end, combined with the defined lateral stiffness (compliance) of all PRO10 rear ends, enables precise line-holding even through rough terrain.
With an anti-squat calibrated to each model at just over 100%, we achieve an extremely stable pedaling platform across all bikes, effectively preventing bobbing during strong acceleration.
The wheel rise curve begins directed backward to minimize resistance when avoiding obstacles. At the same time, the wheel rise curve is optimized to ensure no noticeable pedal kickback.
The forces acting during braking can compress the rear suspension and counteract the weight shift caused by braking. The PRO10 suspension system effectively utilizes this effect to ensure controlled braking while maintaining optimal suspension performance.
The shock is connected via two links, resulting in virtually no lateral forces acting on the shock. This maximizes the effectiveness and longevity of the shock.
The force transfer from the rear end to the main frame is very uniform due to the floating system, allowing for an overall lightweight frame construction.
The large stainless steel bearings are protected by an additional seal (Propain Dirt Shields) and guarantee an extremely long lifespan. The positioning of the bearings ensures very low forces acting on them, further reducing maintenance intervals.
The positioning of the shock contributes to a very low and central center of gravity, significantly enhancing the bikes’ handling.
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.
