Commencal Meta TR V4 29 Ohlins AXS Trail Bike
When Commencal developed the META TR 29, its intentions were clear - to make a bike that performs very well uphill but that also retains the COMMENCAL downhill DNA. They got the result they wanted thanks to a few key points:
- Large 29-inch wheels.
- Reworked and modifiable kinematics making the bike more dynamic.
- A straighter seat angle (and reduced offset).
The result is a particularly harmonious bike, a formidable pedaller and ideal companion for long active rides. The TR is seamlessly capable of transcending from uphill to downhill and soaking up all types of lumps and bumps in between. Thanks to 140mm of rear travel and the 150mm or 160mm fork, it tackles most obstacles without hesitation. Plus, the TR shows liveness and is playful when it comes to the terrain and pumping for speed etc. Mike Kazimer, reporter at Pinkbike, describes the META TR 29 as one of the funnest bikes he's ridden!
The stiffness of the frame is always the subject of much attention.
The use of double-row Enduro Bearings allows a more homogeneous deformation of the frame without the loss of stiffness via the bearings.
In addition to all this in-depth work, like on our META POWER TR, META SX and CLASH bikes, we now offer a Flip Chip on the shock absorber extension in order to more acutely adjust the geometry, and therefore fit your personal style! This system means you can influence the height of the bottom bracket as well as the steerer and saddle angles within seconds. Depending on what you want, effectively, you can choose between a lively bike perfect for big pedalling missions, or more progressive bike ideal for days in bike park or on more committed lines.
This bike is intended for very physical and demanding riders. It is a true performance model. Indeed, there is the best enduro suspension from the Swedish brand, a TTX1 air shock which offers excellent feeling and reactivity as well as numerous adjustment possibilities. Performance is also key on the front with the RXF36 fork. It is super precise and handles excellently on steeper slopes. And there's no better way to stop this machine than with SHIMANO XT 4-piston brakes and RT-MT900 rotors which offer unrivaled heat management. To finish in style, there's DT SWISS XM 1700 Spline wheels. Their excellent weight/reactivity/reliability ratio sealed it for us.
This META TR 29 has arrived with the all new SRAM GX AXS 12 speed drivetrain! Wireless technology between the control and the derailleur offers many advantages over a conventional transmission:
- Easy assembly and disassembly of the system
- Clean and quiet cockpit thanks no cables
- A more ergonomic shifter
- Ultra fast and precise system when changing gear
- No performance and maintenance problems associated with the wear of a traditional cable
- Derailleur clutch system allowing it to disengage on impact and prevent possible breakage
- Possible to configure and customize the operation of the shifter
- Possible to analyze the data of the day's output through to the AXS website
- Weight similar to conventional transmission
