New whip looks great, Lovin the orange!
Thanks man. Took it out in the mud and snow. Doesn’t look like this anymore. ; )
They always look best on the day you buy them and the day you sell them.
That’s the truth.
Ok, I just bought the chameleon frame a week ago, but thanks for the offer anyway. I wanted a do it all bike, so I don’t have bikes just laying around. I just wanted to know if it’s good with street. Thanks
Nice. You picked the right bike. Enjoy.
thaz one crazy ass looking wheelset!
Awesome. Thanks for checking it out. Here’s a direct link: http://crankbrothers.com/wheel_iodine.php
It looks awsome. May I ask for the total price?
Good question. I would estimate $2,800 retail (single speed build). I didn’t keep track of costs and much of this build was done at wholesale.
Is good for street? (if you do street)
Yes. This frame is good for street. Built to do it all really. However, if you aren’t looking to do it all, you might consider a dedicated street frame and the geometry will be more in line with street only. i do ride street and currently use a Giant STP. If you are interested, I have two street frames for sale – both are brand new. One is frame-only, the other a complete bike. Both Commencal Absolute’s. Get at me if you are interested. I’ll do them 400 regardless of which you choose. They retail for $550. Picked them up for a friend and it turns out he doesn’t need them so I have to get rid of em.

Is this a Medium size frame
My Chameleon is a large and the Commencal’s shown above are both longs.
Is this a medium size frame?
It’s a size large…
super nice built. pick up a black chameleon after i saw this.
no regret.
Thanks. Glad it helped influence your bike purchase!
