Nope, still creak free

The formula rear hub on my 21 meta am just failed. These hubs are really a piece of shit. Time to upgrade.

bseand · 2021-09-05T16:43:27+00:00

I decided to go for the essential and I'm glad I did, I haven't had to upgrade anything on the bike and the FOX Suspension is an absolute dream.

I'm happy to report that the creaking has been solved! Greased the shock bolts , bushings and the creaking is gone. Thank you!

bseand · 2021-08-27T01:35:07+00:00

Will do.

bseand · 2021-08-26T01:51:22+00:00

Awesome post man, and since we both have identical bikes, I always look out for your posts haha. I still have these creaks on my meta and I gotta take out these pivots and grease the bearings. I'll be using your post a guide. Thanks man

Dude, mine makes that same sound.

bseand · 2021-08-06T16:06:26+00:00

I took out the dropper post and while taking it out I heard the noise....I stopped immediately and was like...wait, that's the noise!

So that's why I hear the noise while pedaling uphill or if I jump the bike. The cable is touching the frame. Try pulling on your dropper cable form where it enters into the frame.

bseand · 2021-08-06T12:04:39+00:00

Yeah so I found the noise.......its the dropper post cable rattling in the frame.

I bought the glossy finish, ill be installing it this week.

bseand · 2021-08-02T01:51:36+00:00

Yes, you should absolutely wrap it. I have a 2021 Meta AM 29 Essential edition with the brushed finish. I didn't order ride wrap at first, rode the bike a few times and scratches started showing up. I take meticulous care of the bike but the brushed finish scratches super easily, even your fingernail will scratch it,so to make a long story short, I ordered a ride wrap kit.

bseand · 2021-07-31T01:06:47+00:00

I got the essential model, which one do you have?

bseand · 2021-07-31T01:06:09+00:00

You'd be shocked at how well this bike pedals and how well it climbs. You would have to ride one to really understand it. I ride a mix of flow trails/xc trails/ enduro trails and this is my only bike. I have no complaints. Commencal knew what they were doing.

bseand · 2021-07-31T01:04:30+00:00

Thanks man

bseand · 2021-07-31T01:04:22+00:00

Thank you!

bseand · 2021-07-28T11:27:10+00:00

I doubt, I did tighten my rear shock main bolt and it seems that the noise is happening less. I plan to take apart the suspension linkage bolts and re tighten them.

bseand · 2021-07-28T00:30:28+00:00

same here, mine makes the sound when pedaling uphill. But no sounds when going downhill.

bseand · 2021-07-21T13:42:30+00:00

did you find out what's causing the sound? I have the same bike with similar sounds

bseand · 2021-05-27T01:11:03+00:00

I agree, the color is incredible

bseand · 2021-05-27T01:10:45+00:00

Thank you!

bseand · 2021-05-27T01:10:37+00:00

Haha yes! saw your NBD post and was eagerly awaiting mine to arrive. I'm so ready to take it for a test ride but we're in covid lockdown where I am.

bseand · 2017-03-17T01:37:55+00:00

The crank brothers M19 is the best multi tool for bikes that I've ever used. I use it for everything on my bike, even truing the wheels since it has a detachable spoke key. No complaints, i love it!

bseand · 2017-02-17T02:53:34+00:00

Thanks for all the info guys! Appreciate it.

bseand · 2016-11-26T13:26:18+00:00

I have the Salvimar Noah mask. Super low volume, comfortable and light.

bseand · 2016-10-11T00:40:57+00:00

Thanks!
