RockCoach Posted February 21, 2016 Share How much was the whole job about Well, I don't know yet. Will wait for the invoice. Luckily I get it at cost. I also design my own graphics so no cost there. Painjobs start at R2k for a flat colour and goes up to around R4.5k depending on the effects you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAAHIRWP Posted February 22, 2016 Share This has been a long time coming.... I bought a 2012 commencal meta am3, out of the box it came with: Fox 32 float RL, float R rear shock, sram x5/7 2x10 groupset, mavic xm319 rims, formula RX brakes and everything else commencal branded... cockpit, hubs etc. >> To date the groupset changed to a 1x10 setup with wolftooth 40T expander, sram X9 type 2 rear derailleur, stock x5 shifter still in use, and zee cranks with a kitted 32T narrow wide ring. >> Regarding suspension, the float R was swapped out for an old school RP2 (the non boost valve version) and received new decals. I picked up an old school 2010 fox float 36 RC2, and set it 160mm, the stock 36 went from this.... (Thanks Stoke suspension for the advise and service) to this... (Thanks Bogus one and Tyerone for the help) >> amoungst other things, a giant dropper SL, BBB clipless pedals was changed to Shimano DX pedals, Handlebar and stem was changed to Spank bearclaw series... 777mm wide bars and 35mm stem, all took its respective places on the bike. Stock XM319 rims with novatec branded commi hubs was swapped out for these.... Inferno 29's laced to Hope pro evo 2's 20mm front TA and 142 x 12 mm rear, I think it has wheelsmith black spokes with deep red nipples.. (Thanks Bibi for hooking me up..) Tyerone added the finishing touches... I added the dirt... and the outcome... Currently sporting a 2.35 Magic Mary TLeasy trailstar snakeskin front, and Maxxis minion DHF exo 2.5 rear This is my All mountain, XC, Trail, DH and endure ride... still going strong on my 26inch wheel and don't intend changing anytime soon. One question though... do you recon it is still an AM3 or could I now say I have an AM Peace out!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

popcorn_skollie Posted February 22, 2016 Share You recon it is still an AM3? I refuse to accept that my meta is still a numero 3 with all the crap i've thrown on it. So no. Your year long, meticulously pedantic approach to upgrades has paid off. Its the prettiest AM I've ever seen hands down. Congrats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
