Commencal META POWER TR BOSCH ESSENTIAL Review

The Performance Line CX from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. No matter how steep or technical the climb is: the Bosch motor makes it conquerable! At the same time, the drive provides a very natural feeling while riding with a dynamic power delivery. Achieving such a perfect balance between natural support and power is something few other engines can do. The average range can become a problem especially for long mountain bike rides.

A good chassis sits in rugged terrain and generates plenty of traction. That's exactly what the good Fox chassis in the META POWER TR BOSCH ESSENTIAL hits. Bad brakes reduce the riding pleasure. Fortunately, this is not the case with the META POWER TR BOSCH ESSENTIAL. With their two pistons and large brake rotors the Shimano brake brakes good. At the drivetrain components and the rest of the parts, Commencal uses average parts. The moderate head tube angle provides a good compromise between stability and agility when going downhill. The reach is also right there in the middle ground. The low bottom bracket height is a party pooper for the handling on the trail. On other bikes, you are more centrally located behind the handlebar.
