IMO : if you don't know which type to choose, you need a trail bike. The other types are specialist machines optimised for specific racing events (XC, Enduro, DH, Cyclo-cross...) so they're for people with a racing license, a race schedule pinned to their wall, following a year-long training regimen.

I have to say that larger riders may prefer the enduro oriented bikes, simply because they're stiffer and feel more stable. I had to exchange my Meta TR for the Meta AM because the TR felt too insubstantial under me. 6'2", 205lbs. Personally, anything less than an enduro bike feels flimsy under me. These new enduro bikes are so lightweight, such good climbers, and with the new geo on bikes now, the larger frame sizes really improve the comfort of bikes for tall/ heavy people.

Barelli said it himself that the Meta AM 29 is an out and out race bike for limited few folks vs. the TR which he recommended for the vast majority of people ripping their local trails and participating in races here and there. That Meta TR is both longer and slacker with a steeper seat tube than my size large Megatower. It has slightly less travel. That "trail" bike is an absolute weapon!

Not surprised the times between these two bikes were so similar; after all that Trail bike has the most enduro geometry I've ever seen on a trail/all-mountain bike (there is less than 1° difference between the headtube and seat tube angles, whereas most trail bikes have a 65-67° headtube angle). Not to mention the Fox 36 was considered an enduro fork until the 38 came out this year.

1. Impressive how much fun to watch you can make a commercial, which is basically what this was. A better title may have been "Which Commencal bike is best for you?" 2. Truly well done. Looked forward to this video all week, and it didn't disappoint, for entertainment anyway, with a little helpful info. 3. Doddy's comment about trail bikes....some of them leaning toward the XC geometry and some leaning toward the Enduro...was spot on. Surprised it wasn't mentioned that the Meta leans toward the Enduro, big time, with extremely different geometry than my '18 Trek Fuel EX (also a trail bike) which has a much steeper head angle. This is probably why the Enduro bike only beat the Trail bike by 3 seconds on the downhill. Interesting to me how much their Trail bike beat their Enduro bike on the 50 minute segment dubbed the "Trail" section. This leads me to #4 4. Trail bike is definitely the one for me, as it's the better all-rounder, and in my area, trail is about the best one can hope for as most trails are XC green trails, blue at best. Trail also works for when you go a little farther away to ride bigger stuff on occasion. 5. A more helpful and interesting video I'd like to see made is a comparison between a couple Enduro-leaning trail bikes and a couple XC-learning trail bikes from multiple popular brands/top contenders - including brick and mortar big brands like Specialized and Trek, and the top direct sales models. Then again, I would anticipate results would be about the same. The Enduro leaning trail bikes like this META would be best on big tech, chunk, downhill and big jumps, with their more relaxed geometry and beefier suspension, and XC oriented trail bikes would be faster on climbs and most 'trail' sections with moderate obstacles that reward peddling efficiency.

It's a good question. Yesterday I spent all morning going up and then descending some technical trails (hard for me, I'm not an advanced raider). I have a trail bike that's 1 year old, so quite capable. Would an Enduro bike be better for me? Would it enable me to go down those trails with more confidence? Would it make much of a difference in the climbs?
@leftaroundabout

The mass isn't _that_ different between trail vs enduro. A modern enduro bike pedals just fine as long as you stay relaxed in the saddle - only when you try to stand up for a sprint does it go all spongey and inefficient. And that relaxed chugging upwards with large suspension can actually _help_ with some of the fatigue. Of course, when you literally mean _carrying_ the bike, then every extra gram is an extra nuisance indeed... but carrying a bike for _miles_ - seriously?
@vomErsten
@vomErsten 4 жыл бұрын
@@iggalan It really depends on what bike you have vs. what enduro bike you are looking at jumping into because the spec and geo vary so wildly from bike to bike. It's also worth noting that "enduro" and "all mountain" get used interchangeably by almost everybody, but there is some nuance in there such that the latter is probably more relaxed and plush than the former. I personally wouldn't consider any 27.5-wheeled bike in 2020 to be an enduro, it's empirically faster to be on 29" at least in the front wheel. All-mountain, though, certainly.

The Commencal META is a great bike. I got the META TR just before winter and had a chance to use it a bit. I'm in love, it's a nice and fun bike for sure. Even the TR feels great going downhill, much better than you common trail bike. In fact it is defined as "mini enduro" and I think it makes perfect sense. Oh and for the folks at Commencal: I totally got this bike because of the overwhelming positive comments made on it on the GMBN tech show back when the bike was announced. So glad to see it on GMBN now.

Ive recently had a very similar 'issue' when choosing my newest steed. for the type of riding i do i just had to go enduro. its not much but the extra confidence on the heavier descents made up the decision for me. might be a tougher ride on the uphill but meh, makes my legs stronger.

100% I ride a fat heavy enduro and I outclimb and outlast all my buddies on trail bikes and I'm not really ever worried about being underbiked on the way down. I can't imagine getting on a legit trail bike, I'd be able to climb a tree with it.

Commencal bikes are really nice but they obviously lie about their bikes weight on their website. I have a meta AM 29 2019, which was announed at 14,9kg ( without pedals ) but in reality mine is 16,2kg with pedals, and moreover I changed the NX cassette for a GX one to get 200gr less... Their new meta with Fox 38 or Zeb must be heavy as fuck. I admire how strong can be people doing a 40km enduro race with 1500 D+ with these bikes.

Very nice concept, funny video ! The chosen trail bike is more on the enduro side. I wonder what would have been the time difference with a smaller trail bike (ex: fox 34, float DPS).

This is not the right comparison between a trail and an enduro bike. The TR model has a pure enduro geometry which is very similar to the AM model. The TR name is misleading, they have basically created an enduro bike with less suspension than the AM. It would have been more interesting to explain in the video how the bikes ride instead just counting the time - it is obvious that a bike with more travel goes faster downhill and that a bike with less travel goes faster uphill. Nothing informative on this video sorry

I love these Split-Screen series...and Blake is so likeable and does a real good job presenting these...very entertaining...thanks for that...! 2 thoughts about the video. 1. would love to see both bikes not only on a fireroad climb but on more tecky, chunky stuff...same on the trail loop 2. Best of both worlds was and will ever be the AM bike at around 150mm in the front and 140/135mm in the back....

There is a lot you can do to make the enduro bike a lot more efficient for flat rides, thinner faster trail tyres Chang the geo chips up if you can. More psi in everything. It's not so black and white

I always see all of ya riding such beautiful trails and cry inside, because the most similar thing here is a kind of pump track but it's 1'5min at max. Almost everything I can do is XC, and I believe I'd enjoy enduro more

So on the flat up hill neither rider locked out suspension for a timed event? That trail bike is pretty trick for what it is suppose to be. At least in my opinion.
