Expirience with the Commencal META HT AM RACE

Commencal META HT AM RACE Review
Ludwig Döhl
The META HT AM RACE is a classic among trail hardtails. Robust, cheap, fun-oriented. With its geometry, the Commencal Hardtail is right in the middle between playfulness and high speed stability. The upright seating position gives the Commencal All Mountain a comfortable character. On climbs, other bikes in the under 3000 Euro present a little better performance than the Commencal All Mountain. Especially for light riders under 70 kilos, the weight of this bike is enormous. With 14,2 kg, the ratio of rider to bike weight could be lighter. The All Mountain of Commencal shows what its capable of in the downhill.
