Commencal Meta SL Summer 2012
New bike time CRC are doing these at £2400 that's £1200 off are they any good?
If it's the new ones then I've ridden one and liked it a lot. I've been testing the new Meta AM 29er and have absolutely loved it.
In case it helps: My SL impressions http://www.bikerumor.com/2012/05/23/commencal-meta-sl-first-look-ride-impressions/
I rode one in Whistler and whilst it's a fantastic trail centre bike, it's a bit of a misnomer labelling it 'SL' as at 28lb without pedals it ain't 'super light'.
I currently have a Commencal Super 4 which is great for XC duties and was thinking of getting the SL to replace it, but it's a different beast altogether and too heavy for just XC.
This guy rode the same bike as me and I agree 100% with his comments;

..and TBH the Spec for full price is pretty average, I would be P'd off if that's all I got for £3600, just about right for the current discounted price though.
