This rig was built for riders who don’t flinch at steep lines, wild weather, or the unknown around the next corner. With 165mm of rear travel, a FOX 38 up front, and Shimano’s battle-tested SLX gear and brakes, the META SX V5 ESSENTIAL eats chunky terrain for breakfast. From Queenstown rock gardens to Rotorua roots, it grips, rips, and keeps you charging harder. If your idea of fun involves mud, speed, and questionable line choices.

Unleash your inner adventurer with the COMMENCAL META SX V5 ESSENTIAL SILVER—the ultimate enduro beast ready to tackle New Zealand's wildest trails. Designed for riders who thrive on challenge, this bike thrives in the rugged landscapes, much like a teenage kiwi finding its way home after an exhilarating night out in the bush.

Key Features:

  • 165mm Rear Travel: Dive deep into trails with confidence, courtesy of the Virtual Contact System (VCS) kinematics that ensure you stay glued to the wildest descents.
  • Fox 38 Float Performance Fork: Sink into comfort with a three-position GRIP cartridge, adaptable for everything from Rotorua’s volcanic dirt to Cardrona's steep slopes.
  • FOX Float X2 Performance Shock: Tame that technical terrain with fully adjustable rebound and low-speed compression, making sense of even the steepest descents.
  • Reliable SHIMANO SLX 4-Piston Brakes: Feel secure and in control, whether you’re riding the remote rocky trails or zipping through the Bike Park at warp speed.
  • 12-Speed SLX Transmission: Switch gears effortlessly, whether you’re climbing Wairoa Gorge or cruising through the lush timberlands of Whakarewarewa.
  • DT SWISS E 532 Tubeless-Ready Rims: Built to endure, these wheels are your trusty allies against the uniquely unpredictable Kiwi weather.
  • MAXXIS Minion DHRII Tyres: Enjoy grip like a clingy ex at every twist and turn, engineered to keep you grounded over those loose, tricky surfaces.

Ready to conquer the challenges of Crankworx Rotorua or test your skills across the stunning vistas of the South Island? Strap in and get ready for a ride that screams adventure and durability. This isn’t just any bike; it’s your ticket to exploration, excitement, and maybe a bit of mischief on the trails.

Armed with 165mm rear travel and a FOX 38 Performance fork, this alloy enduro machine is tuned for aggressive riding with Shimano SLX 12-speed shifting and 4-piston brakes. A Float X2 Performance shock delivers supple control, while DT Swiss E 532 rims and Maxxis rubber (Assegai up front, DHR II rear) give you the grip and durability to hold any line. Finished with a KS dropper and SDG saddle, it’s a bombproof setup that’s ready for big mountain days and wild park laps.

Built around a tough AL 6066 T4/T6 alloy frame with 165mm rear travel, this enduro chassis blends strength and precision. Compatible with piggyback shocks and integrated cable routing, it’s optimised for aggressive setups with a 230x65mm shock, 200–223mm rotor clearance, and ISCG 05 tabs. A Press Fit BB92, 34.9mm seatpost, and 12x148mm Boost rear hub round out the build, with geometry tuned for a mixed wheel setup and 64mm max tyre width.
