Just built this for my mate.

Rides very nice and looks just as good, don't half look slack though

I didn't line the logos up so 'they' would have something to moan about.

Wont climb or get much traction on the front with all those spacers under the stem.

It's a clear coat. you can see the brazing and welding.

about £1200.

with 719's on hope pro 2, slx drivetrain and stroker brakes. The Pikes are 426 coils form Merlin.

It also has easton carbon DH bars, so i guess a very similar build witha little less bling will easily be done for under a grand

Agree, I tried lots of spacers..you need them initially but gradually you swap them round

I would have put half on top to start with but its a personal thing I suppose.

Just finished rebuilding my Chameleon - one thing I noticed straight away was how high (really high) the front end on my Chameleon is to my Summer season!!!
