Perhaps taking inspiration from Loic Bruni's rusted World Champs bike, Andreu will be taking on the fearsome red cliffs on his own rust-effect frame.

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
