Recent thread on Singltrackworld about it. Think owner conclusions were bb slightly higher but wont notice difference wheel size

Thanks for the link. Gmbn have done a couple of videos on it, basically downhill good uphill not so good. Although that was on some pretty slack bikes to start with so that would have an impact. It's a case of ride it and see when the bike arrives really! Fortunate to have a family member who works in the LBS(kirroughtree) so could get out some 29ers to try.

Anyone with a Santa Cruz Chameleon? I've bought a 2nd hand '19 with 27.5" wheels, 140mm fox 34 forks and xtr/xt gears and brakes etx. Can't wait for it to arrive. Wondering about eventually changing over to 29 however not sure about effect on geometry, especially seattube angle. Any thoughts? It's a medium and I'm 5.10 but I'm expecting that with a 60/70mm stem it will be fine. Not necessarily ideal but a great bike and hardly the time to be quibbling over what bikes are for sale! Any advice for getting the most out of it/kit that really works well on the Chameleon? Cheers!
