The Commencal Super 4 is a light, responsive marathon XC
mountain bike capable of easily going down a hill that it can just
as easily climb up, a performance balance not given to every bike
on the market.

Particular attention has been paid to the frames geometry:
Sloping top tube for more maneuverability, shorter chainstays for
more dynamic handling, and the head angle is sufficiently slack to
allow you to fly down the hills in total confidence.

The Super 4 is equipped with Rockshox Recon SL forks, giving you more stability, efficiency and
fun in the technical trails without sacrificing its climbing ability. This
bike offers performance for all the riders who love real mountain
biking.
