Mar 2021

The Commencal Meta Power Trail TR 29 impressed us with its ability to hang in terrain way above its class and at high speeds.

  • Polished aluminum finish

  • Wants to be pushed

  • Adjustable Geo

  • Hard Charging DH capability

Lows
  • Needs Volume Reducers

  • A bit long for everyday climbing and tight trails

Commencal Meta Power 29 Essential e-bike review - MBR

Feb 2021 · Alan Muldoon

Highs
  • Rips up climbs

Lows
  • Mismatched suspension

COMMENCAL META POWER 29 TEAM in Review

  • Clever and robust spec

  • Excellent suspension and easy set-up

Lows
  • Poor finishing quality on the frame

  • Dropper post is difficult to operate
