Commencal (Andorra) - Press Release: We’d prefer to see our teenagers spend their weekends on a bike rather than on a console or in a shopping mall. And for us big kids, it's exactly the same!

On pump tracks that seem to be popping up everywhere, on jump lines, in the street or skate park, the Absolut is an ideal bike for maximum fun and progressing until nightfall.

Paul Couderc does not disagree. He pushed himself and this bike to its limits by participating in the ultimate slopestyle competition, Red Bull Joyride in Whistler, Canada. He showed us that the bike can endure everything, including the biggest jumps and gnarliest crashes. A few days later in My War, Paul stomps a World’s First, a never done before trick!

Absolut RS 2021:

If you're a dirt fan, you may have seen this frame in the hands of Paul Couderc or Kyle Strait already. Both received their new frames at the start of the year and they're loving them!We wanted this Absolut RS to be really high-end. For the fork we opted for a Rockshox Pike DJ. It's a fork that you see on the bikes of the biggest names in this discipline. And beyond marrying perfectly with the 'Polar Silver' paint of the frame, it features an air spring, which means you can harden or adjust the progressiveness of the fork using tokens. The 3-piece BMX type crankset is stiff and crash-resistant. Accompanied by solid and reliable single speed hubs, the Spank Spike 33 wheels are reactive, strong and perfectly suited to dirt. Finally, Schwalbe tyres perfectly compliment the Absolut vibe and benefit from an excellent roll/grip ratio.
