Expirience with the Commencal META SX RIDE

Ludwig Döhl When using the bike for on extremely technical trails, the Commencal META SX RIDE with its 170 mm on the fork is totally spot on. On the scale, the Commencal META SX RIDE with 15,1 kg looks good. Most Enduro in the price range until under 4500 Euro are heavier. The handling of this bike is balanced. So its pretty intuitive to control on singletrails. When entering the saddle, the Commencal META SX RIDE conveys a balanced seating position. On the downhill, however, the Commencal META SX RIDE is left in the dust by its competitors.
