META 4.0

 

The Meta 4.0 is a high performance full suspension XC bike which is designed to take a 100mm travel fork to balance out its 100mm rear travel. It weighs in at 2.2kg without shock. The Meta 4.0 range also fetures what Commencal likes to call perfect size tubing. Perfect size tubing or PST is the use of stronger tubing on larger frames due to the fact that most tall riders will weigh more than a smaller rider. Frame sizes are small (40.5cm) medium (45cm) large (50cm) and XL (53cm).

 

The Meta 4.0 range comes in three models all with verging levels of specs; these are the 4.30, 4.20 and 4.10 (4.10 being the highest spec).

 

 

META 5.0 

 

There is also the Meta 5.0 range. These have all the same fetures as the 4.0 range, but has a bit more rear travel to play with (130mm) and comes with forks to match.

 

Sizing is the same as the Meta 4.0 range and the 5.0 comes in at 2.8kg with out shock.

 

 

RRP $3650.00 for the Meta 5.20.
