Expirience with the Commencal META TR SIGNATURE

Ludwig Döhl Aabove all, the Commencal Fully just feels great. The scales remain light for this model, which is, according to Commencal, at 15 kg. Thus, the META TR SIGNATURE is one of the lighter Enduro that you get for 5499 Euro . If you ride super fast on tricky singletrails, you will love the calm handling of the META TR SIGNATURE. At the seating position, Commencal combines the best of two worlds: It´s balanced character is a good mix of sporty efficiency and a comfortable upright postiion. For trail lovers, one point dominates: the Enduro of Commencal scores in the decent with an extremely good geometry, a high-quality suspension and grippy tires.
