Amaury Pierron Ripping the New Commencal Supreme DH V4.2

Feb 28, 2017 at 9:07
by COMMENCAL BIKES & SKIS  
For some years the Supreme DH has been our centerpiece. In 2015 the V4 was revealed for the first time, causing quite a stir with its high chain-line design but more importantly, it quickly started getting results! Now the V4.2 has been born and is ready to race…

We still see the HPP (High Pivot Point) in this latest model but there are subtle changes and improvements like a longer reach, geometry tweaks, and a one piece rocker.

It was in Lourdes last year that Commencal - Lac Blanc Team member Amaury Pierron hurtled down that track to take his first elite podium! We can’t wait to see him and our other athletes back in action on their new V4.2s at the first World Cup of the season on that notoriously demanding track. In the meantime, though, we’ll settle for this!

 Commencal DH V4.2, YT Tues, or Canyon Sender. All very affordable high-performance bikes from direct-sales European companies. I'd very much like to see the three's entire lineups compared because they all will be selling in the US soon and I'd like a way to choose my latest direct-sales steed

 Would be interesting to compare the 3 but I think I'd go for the commencal, as nice as the canyon is. Commencal just build very good bikes!

 I am not sure about the yt or canyon; i am sure they are amazing. but i got a chance to ride a commencal v4 at winter park in colorado. it reminded me why downhill bikes will never go away. it was an amazing ride.

 Correct me if I'm wrong, but the concept of the high-pivot is to achieve a rearward tire-path to lift up and over obstacles, and the idler pulley is to prevent massive chain-growth that would otherwise occur with that design? That is, engineers have decided for a downhill bike, suspension performance is more important than pedalling? If so, I'm surprised the last decade or longer has been focused on pedalling characteristics like anti-squat as much as they have been. I'm sure the Balfa BB7 is rolling in its grave right now.

 I have an old Atherton V3, great bike. I like the brand, video edits & bikes. I don't buy into the 'no carbon' thing, but I'm always happy with aluminium. Keep it up guys.
