The new Supreme DH frame is kind of ugly. I know someone will be angry that I just said that.

 

[julian_dh]

something gives me the feeling there holding out on us, that looks nothing like what cedric is riding and almost identical to this years frame.
(could be lack of sleep and high blood alcohol level but i think im on point with this one )

i like

I have to agree, I was under the impression this was the 2008 supreme.

 

[skatetokil]

maybe the new gracia design turned out to be le crap.

I have to agree, I was under the impression this was the 2008 supreme.

That looks a lot like a long travel furious.

i really like all of commencal's bikes, the 666 is really cool too.

 

[Lollapalooza]

I don't really care if they changed the Supreme. All I know is a 41.5 pound crazy fast race bike is a pretty good deal at 4k.

 

[rodrigodh]

i thought that was the new 08 supreme dh too...
they've only changed the chain guide.

 

[ridea]

i have a feeling that the one cedric is riding is 09, the green looks sweeeeeeet though. Even then i assume theyve changed it to give more travel for rougher courses so maby theyl keep em' both like the judge and the gemini, could just be theyl relase pics of it later but its more likely its 09. Its near enough the same as this years in the pic.

a bit more info from pinkbike.

on the Meta 5, i like how they "steepened up the geometry to make climbing even better than it already was without harming descending characteristics."

its one thing to CHANGE the descending characteristics, its another to HARM them
they changed them without harming them

apparently cedric was complaining that the new bike has too much weight over the rear.

this is hearsay at best, last time i spoke to him and his mech, they were still designing the bike and testing out different options for front and rear triangles, the finalized version isn't due to Commencal for 5 months still
the ones thing i do remember him telling me was "everytime i come out of a corner i think that i can go faster, i have never cornered a bike like this before"

 

[dhkid]

^^ just saying that they are still tweaking the bike, thats all.

is it me or does it look like they lowered the pivot hight slightly?

 

[elRey]

Is it just me or does the bottom bracket look really friggin high.
