Commencal Meta AM 4.2 Long-Term Test Update

Nov 2017

The obligatory suspension fiddling: With sag gradients on the fork and shock, getting your baseline sag set is fuss free, but we’re still making refinements to the setup. After a bit of internet trawling, we initially set the rear end up with about 25% sag (some reviewers out there felt the Meta rode best with less sag …

Commencal Meta Trail V4.2 Essential 650b review

Apr 2017 · Guy Kesteven

A properly muscular hardcore have-a-go hero that still pedals well enough for epic adventures. Buy if you want to take home big bike scalps from the park without waiting for the uplift to go get some more

Highs
  • Tough, stiff, futureproofed frameset with spot on trail taming geometry

  • High traction, big-hit happy but still efficient pedalling suspension

  • Versatile bike that’s equally at home on all-dayers as intense bursts on the trails

Lows
  • No UK-based point of contact/service centre

The market for enduro bikes is on a continual upward spiral, and while this is great news – it does make picking the right bike even tougher. On paper, the COMMENCAL META AM V4 RACE 650B looks promising; it boasts a great spec, a fair price and well-chosen geometry, but can it live up to […]

Commencal Meta HT AM Race 650B (2015) longterm review - MBR

Dec 2015 · Roo Fowler

Has Commençal created the ultimate hardtail? Nine months’ gestation and Roo reveals all

Highs
  • The RockShox Revelation fork — it felt stiff enough and performed flawlessly throughout the test.

  • Swapping to some Michelin Wild Rock’R 2 tyres, when the bike then came alive.

  • Some of the last, late summer rides on the Meta HT after the three key spec changes were implemented — I felt every bit as confident hitting the same stuff I’d been riding on my full-suspension trail bike.

Lows
  • The first few rides when the Formula brakes started rubbing on the discs and eventually dragged me and the bike to a halt.

  • Any misjudged landings where you feel the lack of compliance in the rear end.

  • In fact, spot a rock on the landing of a jump and you’d better have an inner tube

  • In your pack.

  • Getting used to a 100mm dropper after being spoilt by a 150mm.
