CHECK OUT THE META SX V5
The COMMENCAL META SX V5 is built for New Zealand's most demanding trails, delivering the performance Kiwi riders crave. With 165mm of rear travel powered by the innovative Virtual Contact System (VCS) kinematics, this enduro machine eats up the rugged terrain of South Island’s Craigieburn Range and North Island’s Makara Peak. Designed to blend enduro efficiency with downhill prowess, the META SX V5 is equally at home tackling the iconic gondola-accessed runs of Queenstown Bike Park or the volcanic flow trails of Rotorua’s Skyline.
META V5 - META SX V5: WHICH ONE TO CHOOSE?
COMMENCAL META SX V5 ESSENTIAL SILVER – Conquer New Zealand’s Toughest Trails
The front suspension is handled by FOX’s reliable 38 Float Performance fork, boasting a three-position GRIP cartridge to handle both Rotorua’s grippy volcanic soil and the alpine descents of Cardrona. The rear FOX Float X2 Performance shock, with a large air chamber and fully adjustable rebound and low-speed compression, gives you the control you need on steep descents and technical sections.
Braking is powered by the trustworthy SHIMANO SLX 4-piston brakes, ensuring confidence on the roughest Wellington singletracks or the high-speed trails at Mt Hutt Bike Park. The 12-speed SLX transmission adds versatility, whether you’re grinding up Nelson’s Wairoa Gorge or cruising through Whakarewarewa’s dense native bush.
The META SX V5 rides on DT SWISS E 532 tubeless-ready enduro rims, Formula hubs, and Sapim spokes, providing durability that’s crucial for Kiwi conditions. MAXXIS Minion DHRII tyres with EXO casing complete the setup, offering unmatched grip across New Zealand’s unique terrains, from flat-top hills in Alexandra to Wellington’s coastal descents.
Get ready for the ride of a lifetime with the COMMENCAL META SX V5 – your ultimate companion for exploring New Zealand’s world-class trails and events like Crankworx Rotorua and the NZ Enduro.
