Creativity and versatility are the name of the game with the Santa Cruz Bicycles Chameleon A D MX Complete Mountain Bike. You'd be hard-pressed to find a bike that's more customizable, with every configuration making a lot of sense for its intended purpose: singlespeed or geared, big slicks or smaller knobbies out back, so much is possible with the easily swappable rear dropouts. With a twist of an allen key you can make the coolest bar bike into the most fun trekker. With 130mm of fork travel and a dropper, this is a bike that'll survive the apocalypse--but "cockroach" just isn't a very good name!
Aluminum Frame
Progressive Geometry
148mm Rear Axle Spacing
Triple Bolt Cargo Cage Mount
Interchangeable Rear Dropouts – Whether 29 or mixed, geared or fixed, multiple major configuration transformations are made easy via these interchangeable dropouts.
RockShox Recon RL – Recon has set the benchmark for value-based performance time and time again. With a beefier chassis and stout 32mm Fast Black steel upper tubes, Recon is best recipe for the perfect off-road success.
Fork Adjustments – Air Spring Pressure / Compression to Firm / Rebound
SRAM NX Eagle™ – It's how you start that matters. Whether you're discovering the mountain for the first time or you're an MTB lifer searching for a no-nonsense, no-worries 1x drivetrain, SRAM NX Eagle is ready for action and ready to take you there. NX Eagle brings you a wide range of gear choices engineered for simplicity and durability, so you can focus on what matters most-the ride ahead. German engineered and proudly bearing the SRAM Eagle stamp of approval, NX Eagle is ready to let the world know what real riding feels like.
SRAM Level Brakeset – The SRAM Level brake levels the playing field with power and reliability stuffed into a lightweight package. This is a no-nonsense performer, but don't let its understated disposition fool you - Level gives you the art of braking in minimalist form.
Avid CenterLine Rotors – The new CenterLine Rotor was designed to keep the center of friction consistent throughout rotation thereby minimizing vibration offering consistent performance and a quiet ride.
Maxxis Minion DHF Front Tire – The Minion DHF was designed for the often loose and muddy conditions of aggressive all-mountain terrain. The DHF incorporates ramped knobs for low rolling resistance and channel-cut knobs to increase gripping edges, giving straight-line control and precise cornering.
Mixed Wheel Sizing – The mixed "mullet" wheel sizing of top level racers has trickled down to the rest of us: with a 29" wheel up front for maximum grip and rollover clearance, you'll have a smoother and more solid stance through rough stuff and turns. The smaller 27.5" rear wheel helps you initiate those turns, while keeping the rear end maneuverable and out of your shorts.
WTB ST i29 TCS 2.0 Rims Laced to SRAM MTH Hubs – At 29mm internal width, these aluminum rims pair perfectly with modern trail tires, giving great grip and feel. The hubs are solid performers too, adding up to a capable and durable package designed for the long haul.
