I found a local paint shop to match the paint code Commencal gave me, which ended up being too light a shade anyway. I touched up the spot with primer, then paint. I bought and cut some AMS frame protection kit, and also installed a rubber cable protector. I've been on one 10 mile ride, used...

Good ideas, was also thinking about a slightly longer derailleur cable. thanks!

Thanks yeah I saw the rubbing happening a little while ago but also did 2 downhill days since then, totally my fault for not addressing it sooner, you're right. I ordered some Foundation frame protection from Jenson USA, some rubber hose protector/grommets from Amazon, and got lucky and found...

With 300ish miles on my Meta Power 29, my derallier cable is rubbing, pretty badly right above my BB, through the clear, the paint, and now into the actual aluminum. I contacted Commencal USA, who replied very quickly but they (Romain) basically said out some clear protective film over it...

I'd just email your local Commencal dealer. At least here in the States, they've been pretty good about getting back to me within a day or so.

200 miles on my '21 29er and not a peep. But was does happen with my KS Lev Si dropper is you can actually pull it up with your hands if it's not in fully extended position. It's under a vacuum then "sucks it self" back down to where it was. It works flawlessly on the trail but I've never had...

It's heavy, ep8 clunks a bit, but damn is it fun to ride. It really just rips over everything so far. I'm glad I went with the 29 and not the TR, with the weights being the same, I don't see any benefits to the lesser travel TR. I rode a friend's Canyon Spectral ON for a bit. Weight wise, it...

Thanks, the pads looked glazed, scuffed and cleaned them. Weird after only 2 short 6 mile rides, maybe I overheated them? After the 5th or 6th bed in brake I really felt tbe power come back. Before & After

They came stock on my '21 Commencal Meta Power 29er. My previous (analog) bike had SRAM Code R's. The Deores, especially the rear feel very underwhelming. The fronts actually feel fine, nice and modulated, but I can't even lock up the rear unless I really grab the lever hard. Coasting on a...

(moved to general forum, as it's not really Commencal specific.)

Edit, realized the Ep8 frames don't need a bash guard as the motors guard suffices ?

OCD me would paint a silver I on the electrical tape ??

Managed to route wire under bracket and the lower stem bolt had a small gap when torqued. Before and after

Ah haa! I just checked I do not have a visible hole like that. According to website spec sheet on the 29 Essential, I should I have the "RIDE ALPHA R20 E-Bike 31,8 mm, 780 mm width, 20 mm rise, Alloy 6061, electric wire internal routing". From the website, all the handlebars on every Meta 29...

Thanks, There's 2 wires that come out of the display, one of mine goes with the shifter cable and into the frame on the downtube. The other wire was coming out from under the stem when it was shipped. So there's no wire coming out under of the stem on your bike? Where does that 2nd wire from the...
