Product Description

Stepping up the 29er hardtail game, Vassago levels rowdy trails with their new ultra-responsive, super-versatile, and long-legged ChupaCabra aluminum hardtail Frame. Thanks to its confidence-inspiring 100-120mm fork-compatible geometry, trail-dominating rider position, and plentiful stand-over clearance, the ChupaCabra looks to eliminate lame XC tippy-toe riding from your trail portfolio.

Strengths:    light weight frame, with great cable routing options. Having the options to go single speed or geared.

Weaknesses:    low bottom bracket height, I keep hitting my pedals on roots and rocks.

Bottom Line:   
I love the bike, it handle really good and climbs like a mountian goat. My only complaint so far is the low bottom bracket height.
