I'm looking at getting my lad a Sommet CR. Anyone have or had one and what were your thoughts?

Current or previous year?

I had a 2018 vrs 27.5. It was a great bike. Lovely rear suspension.

Similar then. Although the 2020 versions are down as being steeper head angle / seat angle but I wouldn’t be surprised if that was a mistake on the website. They may well have copied the data over from the 29 version.

Yeah I really enjoyed mine although it was an alloy model with a super deluxe rather than the fox dpx2. Like I say the rear suspension was great. Nice and active. Didn’t seem to get hung up on square edged stuff as much as the other bikes I’ve had. Had a bottomless feel to it too.

Not the lightest of bikes but I used mine for everything. Found it fine for long rides and it was great on uplifts too.

I like the old gen in AL. A long lasting solid frame.
