I started running a mullet on my meta ht it's great I didn't think the bike could get any better . Running 29x2.60 in front and 27.5x 2.80 in back runs like its on rails.
Nice to see you back, totally agree on the handlebar diameter, I’m running a nukeproof horizon carbon cut to 760 and it feels amazing i need to try a good aluminum one to see how it compares to the carbon one but i do not know why people run 35mm handlebars
@@BenYorkeMrHardtail Thanks! It just came in this morning. It has a similar satin finish to your slate frame. I'm hoping to have it built up by this weekend to go ride.
That's a killer setup you got I'm just curious you said you were on cursecor in the rear that's a 2.6 tire right do you run the plus size tire insert or do you run the regular Kush core 27.5 insert
Are you running Cush core up front as well? If so you think it would add some protection from punctures? I'm bout to run same tire/size on my Staton switchback.
I only run it in the rear. I have never had issues with flats with or with Cush core. I think getting the rear downhill casing is mor important and having a good fork setup. I only really had it in the rear for ex star support and the protect my rim.
You forgot to mention that they added 5mm to the reach too . I was wondering why at 6’2” you didn’t get the xl with the longer reach . I have the 2020 and the seat tube is pretty high at 490 but doesn’t bother me to bad so i think i would get the xl just for the longer reach . Im suprised at your subs , should be much higher, your videos are great .
@@BenYorkeMrHardtail ahh I see, so you're just running the longer fork, not a 29r in the front. I saw online that Commencal says all their bikes are 27.5/29 so I was confused. Also what chain is that? Your chain seems to have links every other one and I'm looking online and can only find solid gold/copper chains. Thanks !
One of the best channels about shredding hardtails, if not the best. Keep it up man! So happy for you. 🤘
My favorite youtuber is back!!! Let's goo🤘🤘.
Can't wait to see you riding that beauty!!
Your too kind. :) Glad to be back!

Glad to see you are back! My 22 purple frame is supposed to arrive today or tomorrow and I cant wait for the upgrade as well.
I love the look of that purple frame! Looks like it also has that satin kind of finish as well. Stocked for you! :)

Hey brother it should be up in 1080 now. It just had to finish processing via TH-cam.
@@BenYorkeMrHardtail thank you! Didnt know that it works Like that!
Good machine !!

Great question! I do run the plus size insert! not so much for the 2.6 tire but more so for the rim. as the rim is 37mm internal width.
Nice vid!! Where did you get that color? Was looking at the page and didn't find black ht frames
So awesome!
🔥🔥
how tall are you?? can you plant ur toes or plant ur feet flat on the ground when sitting on the top tube?
What’s the part number on the FSA headset?

I love a smaller more nimble bike. feel i can toss it around more. but thats just me
How tall are you? I’m 6’2”... Don’t know if I should go with a L or XL. Thoughts?
Is this fork under the 29th wheel?
27.5 fork at 170mm .
So when you bought this vine did is come with 27.5 or was it mullet from the start?
was never mullet. I have always run 27.5 front and rear :)

It's a bit heavy ?, someone answer me plz
i think just under 30lbs
Was thinking about this bike but found rift zone 2 for only 200$ more than meta ht.
Which one is better? 2021 or 2022
I would say the same at this point. just go for the colour you like! :)
Thanks 😎
The frame meant for red and black line, that top tube is too slope.
38 stepcast lmaooooooooooo hjahahahah
Ha no doubt! it's the future!!!! lol
Been a while
Been too long brother!
@@BenYorkeMrHardtail glad to see you’re back!!
