Strengths:
craftmanship, soo stiff, cheap considering level, should cost three times a chameleon

Similar Products Used:

Bike Setup:
cross country setup with 3 chainring, pace rc 40 130mm fork, notubes flow rims
Bottom Line:
My one is Race version with easton tubing black anodized, 2.200 grams frame. Choosen for its level of craftmanship that has nothing in common with other products such as Santacruz or specialized. Perfect alignements, perfect welds, reamed and prepared parts. Rear chainstays are 40 cm but a front dera can be fitted even with 2.4 tire. Extra stable downhill, super rigid, difficoult on steepest climbs becouse of short chainstays, can be used for all cross country anyway
