The Commencal Meta HT AM hardtail makes a case for why we shouldn't forget that plus-size tires are still a thing.
Internal cable routing
Plenty of tire clearance
Can run 29” wheel in the frame
Do-everything geometry
No dropper
Fork can’t fit a 29” wheel
One bottle cage mount

The Commencal Meta HT AM Essential is one of the most fun hardtails we've ever tested. This bike handles whatever you throw at it, and is a blast to ride...
Solid value
Mostly well spec'd
Versatile geometry
27.5-inch wheels help keep it maneuverable and playful
A little bland on mellow trails
SRAM SX Eagle drivetrain
