Our Verdict: Rated 4.6/5
Commencal Meta Power SX Signature from Commencal is a enduro e-mountain bike with a Aluminum frame, powered by the Shimano EP8 (85Nm). Value e-enduro. Key strengths are Shimano motor, mixed wheels and alloy frame.
Specification summary: Shimano 630Wh battery with a quoted range of up to 90 km, Fox 38 Performance 170mm / Fox Float X2 suspension, 29-inch F / 27.5-inch R (Mullet) wheels, SRAM GX Eagle 12-Speed, SRAM Code R 4-Piston brakes, weight 24.5 kg, price £4,854. At £4,854 it is about 13 percent below the typical e-bike price in the database, and at 24.5 kg it is about 6 percent above the typical e-bike weight in the database. The battery works out to roughly 26 Wh per kilogram of bike weight. Enduro bikes accept a little extra climbing weight in exchange for slacker geometry, longer travel and sturdier components that stay composed on steep, rough descents.
A full-power motor in the 85Nm class delivers strong assistance on steep, technical climbs at the cost of weight and battery consumption. Aluminium frames are durable and more affordable, with a small weight penalty compared with carbon. The mixed-wheel layout pairs a 29-inch front for rollover with a 27.5-inch rear for easier cornering and extra tyre clearance. The mechanical 12-speed drivetrain offers simple, serviceable shifting with a wide gear range. Four-piston brakes provide stronger, more consistent stopping power for long descents. Range figures are manufacturer estimates; terrain, rider weight, assist mode and temperature can change real-world distance considerably.
Verdict: Commencal Meta Power SX Signature scores strongly in this database with a 4.6 rating. It suits enduro riding. Main caveat: heavy.
How We Rate
How we rate
Every rating on Gear Matrix is published alongside the information it is based on, so you can judge the score for yourself rather than take it on trust.
Gear Matrix ratings are editorial assessments built from published manufacturer specifications and comparative specification data. They are not presented as the result of physical product testing. Where an article is based on a first look, a launch announcement or a press release, the article says so.
Weight-to-power on e-MTBs
Where a weight-to-power ratio is shown it is calculated from two manufacturer-declared figures: the bike’s weight in kilograms and the motor’s declared output. Both inputs are required before any ratio is displayed. We never estimate a missing value, and we never infer a figure from a different model in the range.
The full breakdown of rating criteria is being prepared and will be published on this page.
