    Expirience with the Santa Cruz CHAMELEON R / AL / 29

    Santa Cruz CHAMELEON R / AL / 29 Review Send or be sent: With the CHAMELEON D, Santa Cruz delivers a great trail hardtail for those who don't want to ride a fully but still want to shred like one. With its geometry, the Trailbike of Santa Cruz is right in the middle between playfulness and high speed stability. When entering the saddle, the Trailbike of Santa Cruz conveys a balanced seating position. If you love crisp downhill runs, there are other Trailbike around under 4500 Euro that would suit you better. The guarantee of 25 years proves that Santa Cruz is behind its products. Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon frame sizing runs small.
