Hi,
I have spent the past few years getting back into MTB and managed to build myself up a Santa Cruz Chamelon (1999 model, bombers, deore drive & brakes, Mavic/shimano wheels). This is a great bike but due to work and family it hardly gets ridden – once a month maybe. I would like to think that when I go riding I use it for what it is designed for but in reality my local riding spots are basic wooded trails. I have recently bought a cheap road bike – £50 – and have been out about 8 times in three weeks!! That bike is in need of updating if it is too be used that much so I am now thinking of selling the Chameleon and getting a CX bike but would I regret it? I like the off ride riding that I do but need to improve my bike for the much more available on road riding? Would it better to switch to a CX bike? If so how much would I expect to get for my Chamelon in order to fund it?
Any thoughts appreciated,
Thanks,
Richard.
