Overview of components
Fork
The META V5 T-TYPE comes factory-installed with the Fox Factory Float 36 fork. This has a travel range of 160mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. In conclusion, always look for a fork with decent travel when you buy a bike.
Rear Shock
The META V5 T-TYPE has a rear shock with a travel of 150mm. The model FOX Float X Factory is the one installed in this bike. Rear shocks give you increased comfort, control, and traction, which is important when cornering or braking. This allows you to ride faster on bumpy roads. In conclusion, to increase your riding experience, get a bike with a rear shock if possible.
Wheels
The wheels on META V5 T-TYPE are the 29″ aluminum type. Having 29″ wheels means that you need less fork travel, leading to a reduction of the pedal bob effect. However, if you’re not a tall person, you might find it difficult to adapt to this wheel size.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The META V5 T-TYPE comes with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes provide amazing stopping power, no matter what the terrain. To sum up, these are ideal for anyone.
Dropper post
Commençal META V5 T-TYPE includes a dropper post. A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical. The main benefit of a dropper post is increased safety while riding. As mentioned above, the lever system allows you to quickly move the saddle out of the way when approaching descents or trail obstacles.
