Commencal Village, the first one (black) spent all my first ever proper wage on it. Still got it, but when I moved house I gave up a bit. those vid's make me wanna go out and ride again :)

 

My bro has the same but the special edition blue one (again 1st gen) which might be for sale, unsure of prices now as I've been out of the loop for a few years.

 

i always wanted a commencal, those guys were at the forefrunt of this new light weight scene

 

they wont be worth loads as technology has moved on alot, but get a pic and a price as i always loved those bikes

i used to ride a volume destroyer, with macneil forks, primo SOB wheels, profile cranks with fbm chainring, volume reagle beagle bars, and my favourite dmr pedals. Sold the bike a while ago when moved onto MTB's :(

 

this sounds so much like my old bike man, it had sob wheels on hula hoop rims primo cranks, some cut down slams ahh those were the days, . if so pics pics pics. i loved it and rode it to death, jason enns was class back then ,i was thinking about getting one of these as they re issued the frame with a couple of weight saving bits and i could have got it for about £50, may still get it

 

come on sell your mtb and get a bmx

Will get a pic when I can, they just appealed to as the looked "right" not too big/small no silly gussets, just simple. Felt 1000% better/stronger/tauter than my Dyno and Haro before that.

 

Quality product :)

 

My bro has a K2 Maintime (26) that he's just built up, with front disk and rear magura, looks fooking nails like a super moto

Where could we all meet up? Id be well up for a ride again. I got more into the photography side of things before i gave up, so id probably end up taking pictures and videos.
