Buy if... You're after a true do-it-all hardtail and are open to upgrades

Pros
  1. Excellent and versatile geometry
  2. Soft-compound rubber at the front boosts confidence
  3. Interchangeable dropouts offer a lot of adjustability
Cons
  1. Componentry fails to stack up against cheaper competition
  2. Front brake rotor limits downhill capability

With 25 years of engineering behind it, the latest incarnation of the Santa Cruz Chameleon is a thoroughly modern hardtail with a versatile design and animated nature.

Pros
  1. Go anywhere, do anything attitude. Mix and match wheel sizes along with adjustable chainstay length makes it very adaptable. Maxxis MaxxGrip front tyre. Shorter 460mm seat tube length on size XL.
Cons
  1. Expensive, given the SRAM NX drivetrain. BB height could be lower. No XXL size for really tall riders

  2. soft-compound front tyre boosts control
  3. tons of versatility
Cons
  1. Value is poor
  2. brakes lack power and suffer on long descents
  3. deserves thicker-carcass tyres
