The 27.5″ version of the 2021 META HT AM is spec’d with a 150 mm fork while the 29er gets a 160 mm fork. Reach figures span a 400 mm to 470 mm range.

Reducing the length of the seat tube was their main aim for this model year. 2021 META HT AM GeometryĬommencal have added an XL frame for 2021 now offering riders much improved sizing options. 29″ wheels are recommended for taller riders, and those who appreciate a faster-rolling and efficient larger wheelset. Commencal recommend a 27.5″ wheelset for small and medium sized riders, and for those who prefer the more nimble handling of smaller wheels. Clearance is sufficient for both a 27.5″ and 29″ wheel setup. The new frame is lighter for 2021, with a so-called “semi-rigid” construction. A second upside is that riders can run a much longer dropper seat post, to get the saddle out of the way on descents. Seat tube length should no longer be a limiting factor in sizing options – allowing riders to select the bike with the reach and wheel base figures that suit them best. Commencal improve sizing options for 2021 META HT AM by shortening the seat tube. To accommodate riders who prefer the ride feel from a longer mountain bike, Commencal have shortened the seat tube on the 2021 META HT AM.
