There are a multitude of reasons to ride a
TR. We often hear people say things like,
“trails at home are chilled and I don't ride big mountains”,
"I like a dynamic bike” or
“it’s a joy to explore.” There’s no need to make excuses!
We've always made bikes with conviction.
This
TR is made to ride every
trail around the world because it’s inconceivable for us to think of riding a
trail bike that does anything less!
So, anything and
everything is possible behind these handlebars...
The
specs and
geometry support this
philosophy.
There’s
29-inch wheels,
130mm of travel, a
150mm fork and
powerful brakes.
The
66.5° head angle (65.5° for the
META AM) brings better
pedalling performance.
And remember, it wasn’t a mistake when
MBUK elected the
META TR 29 "TRAIL BIKE OF THE YEAR” in
2019!
Their conclusion is strangely similar to what we see as the best definition of a trail bike...
"A trail bike should be happy to have a go at pretty much anything: capable when the going gets tough, not too much of a handful when the trail is more chilled. It doesn't need KOM-setting climbing capability, but it needs to get to the top without too much pain. Most importantly, it's got to be fun. The COMMENCAL META TR 29 does it all and that's why it's our 2019 Trail Bike of the Year."
The trails around our US HQ are perfect for demonstrating the capabilities of this "little" bike.
And with Bruce Klein behind the bars, it takes on a whole new dimension!
Enjoy!
