I'm was checking these bike and found the meta 5 and the supreme 6 interesting for a do it all bike. Any of you tried these bike ? Any comments on them would be appreciate.

i was told from a dealer in ontario and another in the states that the dh bikes wouldnt hold up to the abuse of the shore or harder freeriding, more of a race bike for a finesse rider so i'm guessing it would be the same for there other rigs.

I have heard nothing but good things...

Although no word on Shore capabilities

I'm from quebec so north shore isn't really a place where we ride.

Not too sure about the nordique jersey hehe

the supreme 6 is a 6 inch freeride/trailbike, although its intention was not to constantly do 10 to flat drops, beleive me our team has taken the Supreme DH and Supreme 6 bikes to the limited for the past 2 years, they are bombproof with NO frame failures, the geometry is a bit more race oriented but you can adjust the headangle to make it steeper or slacker for what ever type of riding you're doing

the meta 5 is not a drop bike, it is an all mountain bike with 5 inches of travel

i have also ridden and speak with Cedric Gracia regularly and he puts those bikes through the paces like nobody else good with no probs (except some rims ;)
