“It just feels so planted, so solid and i want that feeling.”
“I was surprised by that 34 number (llbs) really, i was thinking more between 31, 32 (…) that means it did a really nice job of hiding that on the climb.”
“It rides light and it carries itself well enough that you'll be keeping up with all your friends on their carbon super bikes!"

“It was a thoughtful spec, i like it when a company who has racing roots as they do, puts an emphasis on suspension over the other things. Which they did on this build, like put the money on the bouncy bits, good i love that and the rest of the stuff just works great!"
"COMMENCAL are known for their value."
