Summary
The Commençal Meta Power is a highly capable enduro e-mountain bike, praised for its modernized geometry, improved suspension, and powerful Shimano drive system. It offers quick, precise handling and a balanced ride, making it versatile for both aggressive trail riding and technical climbs. However, some reviews note poor finishing quality and a somewhat heavy front end as drawbacks.
Modernized geometry for quick, precise handling
Improved suspension with 160mm-180mm travel
Powerful and efficient Shimano drive system
Versatile for aggressive trail riding and technical climbs
Balanced ride quality with generous ground clearance
Poor finishing quality on the frame
Somewhat heavy front end
Dropper post is difficult to operate
The 2021 Commencal META Power is another bike launching with the e-mountain bike drive unit, lending the new bike increased range, power and control.
The best word to describe the geometry of the META POWER 29 is balanced.
Descending is in the genes of every COMMENCAL and it’s the same for the META POWER 29 TEAM.

With the Commencal Meta Power 29, you have the battery capacity and the power, but the elevated BB height perches the rider on top, rather than in the bike.
Rips up climbs
Mismatched suspension

The new Meta Power TR is equipped with Shimano's new EP8 motor with a 630Wh battery.

The COMMENCAL META POWER 29 TEAM is the most affordable eMTB on test. Can it keep up with bikes costing almost twice as much?
Unbeatable value for money
Clever and robust spec
Excellent suspension and easy set-up
Poor finishing quality on the frame
Dropper post is difficult to operate
