Whilst i like my bike i'm only new to the marque so have no real affiliation to it.
I'd swap for a fair few brands if the need arose.

I'll be getting rid of my commencal when i can afford it, and probably never gonna return.
There are so many more bikes out there which suit my riding style better.

I only ride them 'coz I get them cheap
Santa Cruz are my No. 1 choice, a V10, Nomad and superlight would be my bikes of choice instead of the Commies.

Looks like theres NO brand loyalty and were all just here cause at this moment in time we own a Commencal
.
Its funny how firms like Yeti, BMW etc have real hardcore followers and some other brands just dont get that affection from folk, i wonder why ?
Have to add the Meta 4X is my first Commencal but i love it, hard to think of another bike id enjoy more at this moment in time.

BITD I used to have a strong brand loyalty to Fisher. Sadly I lost that 'bond' once Trek took over. Some of the 2010 models look rather nice though I must admit.
When I got back riding again just over a year ago one of the things that appealed (other than the price!) with Commie was finding a site like this which said to me there was a decent following.
