New META TR 29: The best of both worlds!Whilst collecting a number of awards in the press (‘Best Trail Bike under $3,000’ from Pinkbike and ‘Trail Bike of the Year’ from MBUK), the META TR 29 is now taking things a step further. How do you make a high-performance-uphill bike whilst keeping the COMMENCAL DNA when it’s time to go down the hill? This is the challenge that we set our engineers. And the results are amazing!Thanks to 29-inch wheels, kinematics that make the bike even more dynamic and a straighter seat tube angle with reduced offset, the META TR 29 is formidable through any pedalling sections.As soon as you get to the top and you’ve hurried to take that inevitable selfie, you’ll be ready to take on the most daunting trails. The 140mm rear travel and 150mm or 160mm fork up front will give you that extra confidence which will make all the difference when things get tough.In September 2020, Pinkbike journalist Mike Kazimer described the META TR 29 as, ”One of the most fun bikes that I’ve ridden this year”.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.Aesthetically, the frame has evolved in depth. It’s very simple, everything is new! Notably, the sharper lines highlight improved performance.Equipped with super tyres and brakes, the new META TR 29 is certainly not just a more comfortable XC bike but rather clearly, a ‘mini-enduro’ which pushes the standards of agility and dynamism even further.About the META TR 29 RACEThe ‘Matte Graphite’ paint job immediately excited many! And what about those red RockShox details?The META TR 29 RACE is the first model in this range to feature a 160mm fork, pushing its capabilities even further! We’ve therefore quipped it with the well-loved ROCKSHOX Lyrik Ultimate which has won numerous Enduro World Series rounds in recent years. The Super Deluxe Ultimate Coil shock will win over the most demanding riders thanks to its sensitivity and flawless, consistent behaviour whatever the terrain, weather or length of your ride.Ultra-efficient all over the mountain, this META TR 29 RACE has good stopping power with SRAM G2 RS 4 piston brakes. A deliberate choice to ensure powerful and lasting braking in all circumstances. The SRAM GX Eagle 10-52t transmission no longer has to prove its reliability and it will take you to the highest peaks. For even more playfulness, the DT SWISS M1900 Spline wheels complete this high-end build.
