Jump aboard the new COMMENCAL T.E.M.P.O with Hugo Frixtalon in British Columbia for this edit that oozes that late summer heat feel!
The T.E.M.P.O is our brand new short travel trail bike, a real playful powerhouse, designed to make the most of all those dream trails where the terrain is just calling out for you to enjoy.
There is a TV ad. in a similar vein here in Australia, this time for the NRMA, the National Roads and Motoring Association (Like the AA in the UK). It shows a man in a shirt and tie slipping gears while trying to cycle along the pavement, as well as people walking commuting to work on the bus) witht the catchline “Never be without your car again”.
