    FS: Santa Cruz Chameleon Frame - Large

    I've been trying to come up w/ a way to build this thing back up as a dirtjumper type thing, but it's not gonna happen. It's a 2003.5, so it has the headtube gussets and the built-in rear disc mount. It's a pretty beefy hardtail, so it's in fine shape. The paint is scuffed up. The worst of the paint damage is 2 scuffs on the top tube from shuttling, and some paint missing on the chainstay near the BB from chain suck. I'm asking $200 for it, plus shipping. I'll throw in the Collar and a Salsa seatpost too.

    Here's a pic from last season. I'll get some close-ups of the paint as soon as I can.

    must...resist....

    anyway, at 6'1" i think it's gonna be too small across the top for me, and I dont' think it'll work best with some kinda 120mm stem on there

    someone scoop this up!
    Let me lock in the system at Warp 2
    Push it on into systematic overdrive
    You know what to do

    If by SOUL you mean "whipmarks across his back" then you're probably right.

    Wha-cha!

    No longer available, Tap...sorry.

    I'll still answer your question though, in case you're still looking. The TT is 23.2" I believe (off the top of my head), but to me the bike feels a bit long. This may be a result of the long wheelbase messing with my head, or could be due to the increase in standover over the Chameleon. Not sure what stem you're running, but I'd imagine a large could fit w/ a longish stem. I personally like a short TT, so I might not be the best judge. If it's gonna be a commuter bike, then a large might still be too small.

    Why get a full squish as a commuter bike, or am I reading too much into your post?

    Whoops. I just assumed this was the Heckler thread. Helps to read the title...sorry Tap.

    I'd say, unless you have some plans to freeride/urban the thing, that you're definitely in the XL range.
