    2009 Commencal DH SUPREME

    Spoke to the frame designer, the reason the top tube is not any lower is because most riders are riding with their saddle at the same height as the stem. Lower the top tube any further and the seatpost would stick out further, creating more leverage on the frame, which means the frame would...

    Vivid+Supreme DH+Direct Mount questions

    Sorry montecro, we gave you the wrong info. You do need 22.2 x 8mm reducers, not bushings (bad translation from french, thanks for setting things right, dhkid). The DH uses a 222mm x 70mm shock, so any brand that has a shock in that dimension will fit with the right reducers. If its worth...
