Got one!


The same bloke who was selling the Orange had this one about to come up for sale, I saw the spec and saw the frame (knowing the SC cham' is super light) I just couldn't resist. Damn near bit his hand off at the price he wanted.

Basic Spec:
Santa Cruz Chameleon (2006-200
Mavic 717 rims on hope hubs
Hope Mono brakes front and rear
Rock shox Revelation 150 forks

Its been set up as a fixed ring commuter atm but it will certainly be getting a groupset before hitting the trails.
I'm made up with it especially as the brakes and forks would sell for more than I bought the whole thing for.

Got a vague planning of heading to the Chilterns (nr Watlington) tomorrow for some biking... Bit of a long shot but has anyone been there recently? How muddy is it after the recent heavy rain?

Ta!

Done!
A few quid more than I wanted to spend but I've got the tools included in that too so its not all bad.

The last few bits have just been ordered from Wiggle so as soon as they arrive I can begin putting it all together. Its currently in a few bits in the clamp stand while I take it apart and inspect a few bits to be sure I'm happy.
