Arrived in perfect condition. I swapped the brake levers over to UK spec (should have just swapped the cables) and attached the handlebars. The dropper was installed from the factory. Popped on the pedals, checked all of the fittings and good to go. No issues with the bike...
I'm going to FOD with a couple of mates on Saturday. If you see anyone on a white Commencal Meta Power 29, that may be me......BTW, I'm 48 and not into extreme downhill either ;)

I asked if they would swap the spring before purchase and they said, "Regarding the shock spring, we have no solution to swap it, because our bikes are based in a logistics platform, and we can not make any mechanical operation".
I've recently ordered a Large Meta Power 29 Essential Fox and it's supplied with a 500lb spring in the Fox DHX2 shock. As I weigh around approx 98kg's kitted up, I suspect the spring will need to be replaced with a 600lbs equivalent at some point. I've always ridden air shocks previously, so was...
