no its not the supreme DH, its a prototype he's been running the past season for Commencal. Its sapposed to be a newer version of the Supreme DH. It should be comming out in 2009 I believe
it's the new 09 commencal supreme dh frame as i commented in another post. so yes, it's def a supreme (unless they change the name - something i doubt they do 
). there's also gonna be a similar new minidh frame with more travel than the current i believe. the point of the new frame is to lower the center of gravity and hopefully shave some weight. and yes, the dh prob gets a little bit more travel too, but that's just me speculating as i don't have it confirmed right now.
the new frame is also supposedly a lot faster than the current. from the animalcommencal site reports on the testing sessions of this frame in andorra, it is evident that when the atherton brothers went head to head, one riding the current and one riding the new, the rider who had the newer was supposedly the faster. i say the rider as they switched back and forth between the bikes.
sounds promesing no? i currently own a supreme fr (minidh) and i'm really excited about the new minidh frame, though i've yet to see good pictures of it or know more about its design and geo. though it's a given that it won't stray too much from the current designs as they are excellent. i just know they had some difficulty in making the new linkage work as well as the current, though obviously that's sorted out now hehe
long comment here, but oh well, lots of info
