Video: Antoine Vidal Shreds Through a Misty Forest on the New Meta AM 29

Jul 7, 2020
by COMMENCAL BIKES & SKIS  


Who has ever said to themselves, "Today I'm riding easy.” And then once on track the adrenaline kicks in and the brakes are forgotten about..?

With this new Meta AM 29 there’s definitely more of a chance you’ll feel like this! The bike picks up speed everywhere and it makes the rider feel comfortable and in control, so they can't help but get more and more involved!

After all, aren't these the feelings that we’re all after? No doubt Antoine Vidal is the same and this video proves it!

Here we see Antoine with the new Meta AM 29 Team. Like the Ride model, this build features RockShox new enduro fork the Zeb, with 38mm uppers for more stiffness and precision.

 "Wait he's putting goggles on that have been on his helmet in the rain?"

"He's not going in the house so dirty like that. He...WAIT HE'S GOING IN THE HOUSE LIKE THAT."

 I really like the angle Commencal decided to go with the new Meta. The 2019 Meta 29 was extremely good looking, but this one is just something completely new for them.

 The song at the end is "Barcelona" from the builders and the butchers. Brilliant band and super nice folks!

 i think most of the time older shorter bikes with smaller wheels look faster on video because the rider has to work more

 @Stokedonthis: possible but also in the video the back wheel looks like it get bucked. I thought it was strange they removed the cross brace on the seat stays for this model. I like the stiffness of my meta am 29 with the cross brace a lot.
