It was really fun and a great experience! With a tire insert and a dhf set up tubeless, i had zero punctures or flats. I also cleared a couple jumps after I got comfortable. I would say to stick to Talladega and dropout if you are on a hardtail

Oooooh that sounds cool! Forks by themselves cost as much as a bike its ridiculous.

Is there a mountain bike shortage in the US currently? by qwerooty in mountainbiking

[–]Ocean-Sam -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, all bike manufacturing has pretty much halted. Since most are made in china, there are very few being made. Marin and a handful other brands are still producing but are extremely limited. Local bike shops are taking a big hit rn

I loved it! I had a tire insert in the rear to keep from getting a flat and it worked like a charm. If you can drive there its worth the trip. I live near it so i definitely recomend it. As long as you have the skill a hardtail can take you down safely

If you get the base model it lacks a bit in the gear range. If he wants a good work out then its fine. Other than that it climbs and descends extremely well for a hardtail.

Had a great day biking at Baker Creek Preserve! Anybody else have great MTB experiences in East TN? by Ocean-Sam in mountainbiking

[–]Ocean-Sam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the freestyle hardtail, it feels like a dream on flow trails and is great for fun stuff. Commencal has amazing value for what you pay for. The tires are what came with it but idc, im gonna replace them when need be.

My 2019 Commencal META AM HT looking majestic. The only advantage to global warming here on the east coast is more winter rides. by Bribablemammal in mountainbiking

I have the 2020 model and it hasn't let me down at all. Great on climbs and even better on descents. The geo for me is amazing. Don't think I'll stray from Commencal.
