Building a COMMENCAL META TR 29er (2021) mountain bike

[@JoesBikesUK]

Enjoy our latest film. We'd love it if you shared it where you can, blogs, Facebook etc Tag us and we'll repost

[@dukeofmtb]

I really would love to see a mullet link for this bike that would also allow you to run a 230x60 shock on it to increase the rear travel to 150. A 160 front, 150 rear, mullet Meta TR would be the dream.

[@tim__sadler]

Stick it on big screen - sit back with a coffee and enjoy. Top work.

[@JoesBikesUK]

Thanks Tim

[@mikejones420]

how many of you here know what that bike on the stand in the opening of the video is? It was from Mountain Cycle, it was the San Andreas, cool to see old school still getting some love

[@JoesBikesUK]

Keep your eyes peeled, one may be coming soon!!

[@BigRichOSM]

I have that exact bike arriving in 2 days. Can't wait. Ordered it in August.

[@JoesBikesUK]

Awesome you’ll love it

[@jordanprysmiki5361]

Hey man how are you liking the bike? Now that you've had it since a few months

[@LUCKYSOB]

Amazing as usual. That color grew on me as the video progressed. The saddle was icing on the cake 🤟😎🤙

[@JoesBikesUK]

It really is a great looking bike this one

[@muhammadnurhaqiem3370]

the diversity of bikes(in term of price bracket) built in your channel is refreshing..most of us can't afford(yet!) a wonder bike anyway..keep up the good job..👍

[@JoesBikesUK]

Great point! Thanks for watching and I'm glad like what we are doing, cheers Joe

[@chugmtbnovice5241]

Oh yeah!! After a pretty rubbish day this will be just what I need! Cheers Joe 👍

[@JoesBikesUK]

Enjoy dude

[@JoesBikesUK]

I hope this cheers you up in this strange world we are living in at the moment, we have some more coming out soon, thanks again for watching, cheers Joe.

[@chugmtbnovice5241]

@@JoesBikesUK it definitely did mate! I truly appreciate these top videos you're putting out. Even more so working with a mask on. I have to wear one all day at work so I know how difficult it can be. Love this build and that colour is amazing! Keep up the rad work dude and stay safe! 👍👍

[@Kev.in-Bike]

once again a quality work for an exceptional bike

[@JoesBikesUK]

Thanks so much!

[@SamuelKGunther]

This is the bike I’m buying next

[@JoesBikesUK]

great choice

[@kevegghead]

Oohhhh that San Andreas!!!!! 😍😍😍 what a machine👍 can remember visiting leisure lakes many years ago and they had one for sale. It was like something from outer space lol

[@JoesBikesUK]

So cool!

[@nomadtrails]

Waiting for my TR Ride in the mail. So jealous of that color.

[@JoesBikesUK]

I hope you get a swift delivery, cheers Joe

[@maceynewport2148]

​@Joe's Bikes do you know the colour mate? I'm looking at "dirt" and "ash grey" to buy but they don't have actual photos of the colours.

[@croomrider9785]

My 2021 clash comes in 2 weeks, can’t wait, went with the clash instead of meta for the 27.5 wheels and longer travel.

[@jeremiah-lo-mein]

Got the 2020 Meta TR Signature it Rocks! Love Commencal !!

[@JoesBikesUK]

such a good bike

[@laulaug5157]

What a beautiful machine , mine should arrive next month, this exact model . Cant wait no more

[@JoesBikesUK]

Awesome!!

[@fahmed70021]

How was the bike? I've been looking at this one for months

[@laulaug5157]

@@fahmed70021 rides like a dream, great descender and for climbing too, might’ve gone with the AM because its slighty more downhill based

[@PK48C]

I came to see how he routed the dropper cable housing, and he took the frame off the wall with it already installed?!

[@PK48C]

@joesbikes do you happen to have a clip of putting it in? The hole under the bash guard is little to no help and I don't want to pull the bb

[@dragosgarage3835]

Hi Joe! Love your videos, so calming! Do you maybe do custom builds for people that are not in uk? Cheers

[@JoesBikesUK]

Maybe one day!

[@geirosrival4468]

What do you think of the SRAM transmission? It is said that the change of plastic is very bad and often fails

[@JoesBikesUK]

I must admit I prefer the build quality of shimano, cheers Joe

[@applejaz]

What kind of dropper post did you put on?

[@JoesBikesUK]

It was a KS Rage, cheers Joe

[@jesterlou3000]

great video - Is that the "Sand" color?

[@JoesBikesUK]

Yes it is, glad you liked the video, cheers Joe.

[@lubos3853]

good, but seatpost cable and rear shock installation is missing primary rear bushing which comes with frame ...

[@vladmarcu225]

A thin layer of grease on the maxle and on the pedal threads and it would've been perfect

[@claudiovillegas2830]

Excellent video, what color is that? so cute

[@JoesBikesUK]

CHERRS BRO ;-)

[@SamuelKGunther]

Have you ever done a fuel ex build?

[@JoesBikesUK]

not yet

[@huckssends7036]

Those are stock components. Did you disassemble it and then built it on video while making it look like custom build?

[@JoesBikesUK]

Hi There Hucks&Sends in the description it says the bike as a catalogue build which is just as that one comes from Commencal. We do build videos to show how the bike is specified by either the factory or the customer, we go through all of the parts in the description list too. It shows how the bike gets put together and hopefully will help if anyone wants to know how they are constructed and how to fix it themselves if they want to. We don't want to give anyone the impression we have done a custom build so I'm sorry if it gave you that impression, I hope you enjoyed it anyway and look forward to more of your comments, cheers Joe.

[@James-dn1hu]

@@taylorbrost their doing it for representation sake just to show it if someone was to do their own build. The bike will come mostly assembled with only the front wheel and bars to put on. Bolt check then ride

[@mirceadersidan2481]

Hy! Why tubes?

[@JoesBikesUK]

Hi Mircea, we will show different methods in video's and tubes are one way, but the bike is a stock bike and we will give the person who buys it the option of tubes or tubeless. Thanks for watching and your comments, I hope you enjoy our video's and look forward to hearing your comments again. cheers Joe.

[@mirceadersidan2481]

Hi! Ok i get it now! Keep the videos coming 🙂

[@wlr3656]

So if I ordered the bike from the commencal website I would have to put it together like that?

[@JoesBikesUK]

They would come almost built, we strip them down to show how they go together. hope this helps and thanks for your comment, we would love it if you subscribed and watched our other videos, cheers Joe

[@wlr3656]

@@JoesBikesUK thank you I ordered a bike before and it was almost built but I didn't know if they we all like that thanks

[@maridian]

such a peaceful bike build. love it. I have been following Commencal for a while. definitely want to pick one up. not sure im qualified to build it.

[@ludovicosforzini799]

Hi, what bearings do you use?

[@JoesBikesUK]

Which ones?

[@fabian5422]

Hey I love the vid. But on thing. The stem... I don’t thing that’s right how you tightened the handlebar onto that. The gap on the upper bolts should be same as the lower! Otherwise you could damage your handlebars. Besides that, great build and fantastic video

[@JoesBikesUK]

Hi Fabian, glad you like the vid and I hope you keep watching. If you look closely at the stem there are arrows which signify that the surfaces should come together in that area, there are a few parts like that these days, one to watch out for. So if you see this pinch them areas together then torque the opposing bolts to the correct pressure, these parts are designed this way. Thanks for your comments and I'm glad you like what we are doing, cheers Joe.

[@fabian5422]

@@JoesBikesUK oh i am sorry! I’ve never seen a stem design like that.

[@JoesBikesUK]

@@fabian5422 Hi Fabian, no need to be sorry, we put these video's together partly for showing things like this, please keep asking questions as it may help others too, thanks again for watching, keep safe, cheers Joe.

[@mislavjelinic5442]

Hello. How much would cost if you build it for me for example?

[@JoesBikesUK]

Large, thanks for watching, cheers Joe.

[@Coerced]

Amazing video. I don't trust commencal because of the way they cheap out on key components for some reason.

[@JoesBikesUK]

Fair enough!

[@whyllqoo]

what key components ?

[@joelballard4952]

Hmm. Was it cold in there? Seems weird to be building a rad bike by yourself with a mask on. 🤔

Yes, we had our covid 19 overkill on fully.
