Expirience with the Commencal META HT AM RIDE

Ludwig Döhl The META HT AM RIDE is a classic among trail hardtails. Robust, cheap, fun-oriented. The handling of this bike remains balanced thanks to a moderate geometry. The upright seating position gives the Commencal All Mountain a comfortable character. On climbs, other bikes in the under 2000 Euro present a little better performance than the META HT AM RIDE. Especially for light riders under 70 kilos, the weight of this bike is enormous. With 14,2 kg, the ratio of rider to bike weight could be lighter.
