Due to the tight supply situation for individual components, bikes may sometimes be delivered with deviating equipment. However, any alternative components used will be of a corresponding quality to that of the original components.
The Chameleon is a blank canvas, ready to go in any direction your imagination takes it. Creativity in wheel size, gearing and component choice make it the perfect muse for free thinkers and freedom seekers alike.
The Chameleon was designed for riders who like to design their ideal bike and are not afraid to experiment. Whether 29" or mullet, geared or singlespeed, the interchangeable dropouts make several major configuration changes easy. The low-slung top tube and progressive geometry ensure this bike will fit into any environment you put it in. From rough shortcuts around town to exploring the neighborhood. Thanks to the three attachment points on the down tube and standard bottle cage in the frame, the bike can be used for trail exploration in no time.
