Is it for you?
We have not ridden this bike. This read is based on the spec sheet and Australian seller information, not a test ride.
Best suited to
Riders who want a lighter, more natural-feeling enduro e-MTB and do not need full-power assistance.
Standout strength
About 22kg with 170mm of travel and FOX Factory suspension, now on sale.
The main compromise
Only 400Wh and 55 Nm, and only sizes M and L were in stock.
Consider something else if
You want long rides on big climbs; the 400Wh battery and 55 Nm motor give less range and help than the full-power Meta Powers.
Check before you buy
Confirm the final price at checkout, since Commencal's page code labels its shown prices as excluding GST, and ask Commencal Australia where the drive system is serviced near you.
