It’s also clear that the folks at Commencal were more concerned with making a bike that’d hold up to a lot of riding than trying to minimize weight. This bike, like all of Commencal’s, is only available with an aluminum frame. “Burly” is a word that gets thrown around a lot in the bike industry, but I think it’s well deserved when discussing the Meta TR 29. You can check out our “Long-Term / Short-Form” video review if that’s your preferred medium, or keep reading for a more in-depth review of this downhill-oriented Trail bike. So it’s time to finally weigh in on how it lived up to my expectations, and who else should be considering it.

I’ve now spent a full season on this bike and also lent it to reviewer Dylan Wood to get his take on it. So I’d be lying if I said the fact that the Meta TR 29 Race’s estimated shipping date of June wasn’t a factor when I decided that it was going to be my next bike. The bike had always looked intriguing to me personally since it seemed like it could offer a nice compromise between being efficient and fun enough on the climbs and mellower trails throughout the Gunnison-Crested Butte valley, while still being burly enough for frequent laps at Crested Butte Mountain Resort’s bike park and the longer, steeper, chunkier descents here.Īlso, it’s 2021, and mountain bike frames and parts are harder to get your hands on than an eel that’s taken a bath in a jar of bike grease. In 2020 Commencal launched an all-new version of their “Trail” bike, the Meta TR 29, which returns unchanged for the 20 model years, apart from some tweaks to the build options.
