How it compares

On travel, the Commencal Meta Power SX 400 is right where the “e-enduro bike” category usually is: 170 mm up front against a median of 170 mm from 56 bikes. Travel is the same front and rear at 170 mm each. Within Commencal’s e-mountain bikes, it sits between the Commencal T.E.M.P.O. Power and the Commencal Meta Power SX 800 on travel. The frame is made of aluminium.

Commencal uses FOX suspension throughout. In total, 3 different forks are used, from the FOX 38 Factory to the FOX 38 Factory E-Bike. It is powered by BOSCH Performance Line SX with a 400 Wh battery.

Setup notes for this spec

Fork (FOX 38 Factory): air goes in through the valve on top of the left leg. After every change, compress the fork firmly a few times before measuring SAG.
Rebound: turn the red FOX adjuster fully closed first and count clicks from there – that way you can note settings and restore them later.
Shock (FOX Float X2 Factory): get on the bike in your normal riding position, step off carefully and read the O-ring. Always cycle the shock a few times after pumping.
e-MTB: because of the extra weight, start with slightly more tyre pressure – the surcharge is already built into the table below.

Target SAG for the Commencal Meta Power SX 400

SAG is the share of travel your weight already uses in the riding position. The table gives it straight in millimetres – read the O-ring on the stanchion and on the shock shaft and adjust the air pressure until it matches. Any figures from Commencal take priority.

170 mm fork, 65.0 mm shock stroke (all builds)

Riding style	Fork SAG	Shock SAG
XC / touring	17 % = 29 mm	24 % = 15.6 mm on the shock shaft
Trail	20 % = 34 mm	28 % = 18.2 mm on the shock shaft
Enduro / rough	22 % = 37 mm	30 % = 19.5 mm on the shock shaft
Bike park	20 % = 34 mm	27 % = 17.6 mm on the shock shaft

How to measure SAG is explained in our guide SAG setup.

Tyre pressure starting values

The values apply to 2.50″ wide tubeless tyres with a trail casing, including the e-MTB surcharge. With an inner tube add about 0.2 bar (2.9 psi), with an insert take off about 0.1 bar (1.5 psi). Stock tyres: Rear: MAXXIS Minion DHRII 27.5'' - Front: MAXXIS ASSEGAI 29''; Rear: SCHWALBE Tacky Chan - Front: SCHWALBE Magic Mary; SCHWALBE MAGIC MARY.

Ready-to-ride weight	Front	Rear
60 kg	1.48 bar (21 psi)	1.68 bar (24 psi)
70 kg	1.60 bar (23 psi)	1.80 bar (26 psi)
80 kg	1.72 bar (25 psi)	1.92 bar (28 psi)
90 kg	1.84 bar (27 psi)	2.04 bar (30 psi)
100 kg	1.96 bar (28 psi)	2.16 bar (31 psi)
110 kg	2.08 bar (30 psi)	2.28 bar (33 psi)
120 kg	2.20 bar (32 psi)	2.40 bar (35 psi)

Air pressure in the fork and shock

You will find a suitable starting pressure on the sticker on the fork stanchion (or on the shock) or in the suspension manufacturers’ setup charts. Our calculator gives you a starting value including rebound for your weight and riding style. What matters afterwards is the measured SAG from the table above.

Note: all information without guarantee. Specs can differ by model year, frame size and market – the type plate, the owner’s manual and Commencal’s information are authoritative. Never exceed the maximum pressures of fork, shock, tyres and rims.
