Expirience with the Commencal META TR RACE

Ludwig Döhl If you buy the META TR RACE, you will really feel suitably prepared for on very demanding single trails. Because that´s exactly what it was developed for. The combination of a 64,5 degree head tube angle and a long wheelbase calms down the handling of the Enduro of Commencal, even if you ride fast. The balanced seating position is likely to suite the taste of the majority of bikers. With a total weight of 15,9 kg, the Commencal Fully is one of the heavier Enduro that you get for under under 6000 Euro. The Commencal META TR RACE has still a ace up its sleeve. When it goes down the hill, the absolutely coherent geometry always makes you want to come back for more.
