Tons of fun
Inexpensive
Comes with everything you need to add gears (rear hanger and 8/9 spd hub) and a rear disc brake. | | Weaknesses: | Hi Ten Fork, Seatpost weighs a metric ton! | | Similar Products Used: | SuperCo, Blk Mkt, DMR, Kona, Haro, Eastern, I have tried them all... | | Bike Setup: | Stockish | | Bottom Line: | Tons of fun for a cheap price. The bars have a racer bend on them and probably should be switched out immediately. It appears to be the same frame as the other Absoulte bikes but with linear brake bosses.
The MaxMax is easy to manual, spin, and has a good size balance point. The parts are all Taiwanese made and Commencal branded...some are crap like the seatpost but for the price of the bike you can easily add parts without going too crazy and running out of $.
I really like the tight geometry. Corssover BMX riders will really like this bike. Parts snobs should avoid it. This bike is really about individualism...it should be built up according to your own tastes.
If you are going to keep it rigid, I would recommend a crmo fork. The stock one seems to be holding up but for the reassurance of my own mind I'm going to upgrade soon. | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$600.00 | | Purchased At: | W Homer Cycles | | Strengths: | Strong good looking frame, cheap, nice riding position for a 5 foot 11 person on the long frame, standard parts are Decent | | Weaknesses: | bit heavy, rigid forks, v brakes, but you upgrade those straight away anyway | | Similar Products Used: | DMR Trailstar, DMR Sidekick | | Bike Setup: | Commencal MaxMax, Marz DJ3's | | Bottom Line: | Great bike for me, i have only just started riding again after a few years break and this is the first bike i bought to get back into it. I cant really say much apart from strong, its taken a beating so far and held up, looks good and is just fun to use. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
