Well I was lucky enough to get the invite from Commencal bikes (our generous Team Sponsor) to see the 2007 Commencal line-up at the VTT Free Raid, Les Deux Alpes in the French alps. Yes the Commencal line up kicks ass but it’s a secret to be let out in the near future so for now we’ll have a look at the competition and the amazing line-up of europes finest DH/4X and Enduro bikes.

Holy eurobikes batman!
I see the high single pivot is STILL alive and well over there, which is ok by me as long as there is NO granny gear associated with it, but no..22 t rings everywhere.

Thank you for the great pics!!!

I did the freeraid two summers ago it was a really good day.

That lapierre looks awesome, with vprocess stickers on the swingarm and a very ih sunday/giant glory looking suspension system with the commencal type adjustable head angle, cant find it on there site must be a new model for 07 but i think it looks really nice.
