| FavoriteTrail: | inners |
| Duration Product Used: | 1 Year |
| Price Paid: | $4200 |
| Strengths: | cornering, jumping, everything! |
| Weaknesses: | It hasn't got any |
| Similar Products Tried: | Intense m3, sunday |
| Bike Setup: | fox 40's, Xo, hussefelt cranks |
| Bottom Line: | This bike is one of the best bikes money can buy, It is soo good at every aspect of downhilling and free-riding. since i have got this frame i haven't looked back once. My riding has improved dramatically because of it and the more i ride it even after a year the better it gets. I cannot recommend it more. Better yet buy one and see for yourself. |

| FavoriteTrail: | fort bill |
| Duration Product Used: | 2 Years |
| Price Paid: | $5000 |
| Strengths: | corners like it is on rails, jumps effortlessly, is really light and strong frame |
| Weaknesses: | None |
| Similar Products Tried: | 224, intense M3 |
| Bike Setup: | fox 40's, SRAM x0, truvativ cranks and bb |
| Bottom Line: | This bike doesn't compare to anything else i have ridden it is truly in a class of it's own, some people think that 180mm isn't enough but the way the travel is set up it feel bottomless and much better than previous bike with more suspension. I would recommend this bike or frame to anyone. |

| FavoriteTrail: | Crans Montana, Swiss Alps. Rheola! |
| Duration Product Used: | 1 Year |
| Purchased At: | Bikeactive.com |
| Strengths: | Grip is amazing and it corners very well. |
| Weaknesses: | None. |
| Similar Products Tried: | 223, 224 |
| Bike Setup: | VIP frame, 40's, Saint, Hope 6ti/M4 |
| Bottom Line: | This bike grips so well it gives the rider time to think about lines instead of fighting the trail. Alot of people might be put off by the fact that it only has 7" but this never an issue as it never feels out of its depth. If anything it is a plus point as it doenst feel wallowy. It also feels very stable in the air and it whips round corners due to the short back end. Another great Commencal product! |
