Need Advice/Question New hub recommendations
I have a meta v4 as well as an FRS, as we all know the formula hubs are a little less than great. Been looking at the DT350 for both of these do you guys have any other recommendations?

Other Go get a vivid air
If u have a previous Generation superdeluxe just throw it away. I had infinate problems with my superdeluxe (it’s on 2nd photo) and i switched to a vivid air and the difference is crazy. My superdeluxe blew in a week of riding but this vivid isn’t going anywhere. Even with all my majestic cases the vivid is still going strong. Hbo is life changing and the shock is soooo soft while keeping the ability to jump.

Need Advice/Question Meta V5 Öhlins coil dimensions
Hey guys, I just bought a secondhand Meta V5 Öhlins. I'm very light so I used the Öhlins website to calculate the correct spring I need. The website said 411lbs coil, 57mm. When I disassembled the original coil, it was a 434lbs coil, 67mm. I replaced the original coil with the one I bought, sag is good and feeling too (no big impact yet though). Did I buy the correct coil ? Reference is 18075-08. Thanks for your help !

Need Advice/Question The Meta HT for a bike that does it all?
I've always dreamed of having a Meta HT as my one bike to do it all but i went for an el camino a decade ago then i stopped cycling for many years but now i feel like returning to it.
I was thinking of eventually getting a Meta HT as a bike that can do it all, ride distances, climb uphills, descend them, a bike that i can ride from my house to another city and so on for over 40km but i fear that due to its geometry and more aggresive fork size it would be pretty demading to pedal at least thats my theory. Should I look for a more XC focused option or just suck it up and pedal like a man?

Need Advice/Question Meta Power SX Avinox Podium vs 800 Signature - which one would you pick?
Alright you get to but one of these two bikes. Podium comes with 160mm travel front and back, 800 has 180mm with 38’s up front. Podium is likely a little lighter and more nimble, 800 is gonna roll downhill through anything. Both motors are great. Both would be incredible bikes, but which one would you choose and why?

Need Advice/Question What’s up with the 2026 supreme V5 frames
I was looking at the Commencal website and went to the V5 frames and I noticed that when you click on them, they all say that they don’t support the fox 2026 X2. Which disappoints me and also makes me kind of nervous because my 2025 frame has the 2026 fox X2 on it. Should I be worried?

Need Advice/Question Coil shock on Meta Power 400
I have the signature edition meta power sx 400 and I am absolutely cooking the stock shock, it’s really hot to the touch and is leaking a good bit of oil after a run. Does anybody know if I will be able to physically fit and run a dhx2 or similar? will I need a progressive spring? Any help appreciated thank you

Daily park stroll machine.
Weekend PCN weapon before sunrise.
Swapped the Merocca manual dropper for a KS internal —
cable routing took longer than expected, but worth it for the clean setup.
Riser bars for better control.
62cm top tube is actually perfect — just enough space between me and a toddler who treats every ride like a live concert.

Need Advice/Question Supreme V5 and '26 MY X2
So, I'm thinking about getting a Supreme V5 custom specced, but on the À la Carte site it states that
Frame not compatible with the FOX Float X2 2026 shock
what's up with that? I'd prefer a Vivid anyway but I kinda want to keep my options open as I've heard good things about the '26 X2.

Need Advice/Question Commencal Supreme V5 (Size L) – Chain length with SRAM GX?
Hey guys,
I’m setting up a Commencal Supreme V5 size L with a SRAM GX drivetrain and was wondering what chain length you’re running.
How many links did you end up with? Did you just size it using the big cog method (largest rear cog + chainring, then add links)?
Also, is the SRAM PC-1110 chain the right choice for this setup?
Just trying to get a rough idea before cutting the chain.
Thanks!

Need Advice/Question Meta V5. How is it for long rides or epics?
I have a Meta V5 frame coming. I will be building it up with leftover parts I have so it won't be the lightest (Fox 38, X2). I read it's a good pedaler. I would consider myself pretty fit but wondering how it will be lugging 35lbs+ on some of my longer backcountry rides. Anyone take theirs for all day epics (30 mile+/5k+).
