An astonishing value, eager and rewarding ride with a slightly more ‘freeride’ feel. Buy if you're after an option for versatile bike-park antics
Generous sizing makes for a comfy cockpit, supportive suspension, air shock offers easily tuneable support and bottom-out resistance
Not the plushest or most stable when the going gets rough

In September, Commencal USA sent us out their mid-spec’d build of their Freeride oriented Furious, dubbed the Essential. Featuring an intriguing matte green paint scheme and all black parts, the bike is an eye-catcher, with small details like having even the chain blacked out. SRAM/RockShox handle the suspension, brakes and most of the drivetrain. E*Thirteen handles the rims, guide and cranks while Maxxis tires, and Commencal house brand seat/post, and grips round off the bike. Let’s dive in… Details and Specs AL 6066 triple butted tubes Oversized pivot bearings Rocker/seat stay integration to form a single piece Internally routed cables/hose Chainstay and Downtube protectors

Breaking away from the continuous march of "slacker and longer," Commençal's latest DH bike is for riders who aren't always up against the clock. With freeride and park laps on the brain, they've developed a bike that focuses on the fun. Get all the details after the break.
