The ARC is back. Conjuring up all the nostalgia, hoots, and hollers from yesteryear. It's your instant-feedback steed for any trail. Show it your singletrack, pump track, and your bikepack route too. It's got history to live up to and new history to make. And it's already impatient.
FEATURES:
SECURED FOR SPEED.
While the ARC has roots back to the beginning of mountain biking, this frame is anything but a nostalgic blast from the past. If you run a chain guide, the ARC has integrated ISCG 05 tabs.
SUMMIT PEAKS.
MAKE SHAPES.
A modern approach to hardtail geometry, without losing traction in the rear: riders have plenty of room to maneuver and respond to trail feedback without being too stretched out.
Far beyond a juiced-up thorough-bred XC race bike, the ARC is built around a 130mm fork for a massively capable trail bike.
DOWN COUNTRY, DONE DIFFERENT.
Qualifying personal achievements with the phrase "for a hardtail" simply isn't necessary. The ARC absolutely rips when held wide open.
THE SOUNDS OF SILENCE.
Internally routed cable tubes with secure closures at entry and exit points make rattles a thing of the past. And an all-new chain slap protector virtually eliminates that chain-on-rubber sound, maintaining the serenity of the adventure.
FEEL
Spry, stiff, light, fast, fun as hell.
DUAL SIDED DOWNTUBE MOUNTS.
For going deeper. Riding longer. Carrying that thing you wish you brought on your last trip.
FULL-STROKE DROPPERS ENCOURAGED.
If a 200mm drop is your thing, you'll still have room to spare.
PUT THE POWER DOWN.
The downtube, seat tube, and chainstays flow into each other for a stiff and direct feel.

Hardtails are about as subtle as bikes come, and in the case of the Highball, simplistic refinement belies engineering effort. We’ve learned from our road biking pals that a great deal of a hardtail’s compliance comes from the seatpost: the smaller the diameter, the softer the feel, and with more seat post exposed to daylight, more compliance is had— which is the reason the Highball features low slung top tube and the smaller, 27.2mm diameter post. But you need not be sitting to recognize the ‘soft’ feel of the Highball— the dropped seat stays are made of custom laminate, finely tuned here in Santa Cruz for vertical compliance— and they’re oriented to isolate the top tube from high speed trail chatter, reducing feedback to the, uh, engine.

Speed, Efficiency, and Endurance
Highlights:
- Progressive, ultralight Hi-MOD Carbon frame / Lefty Ocho Carbon 110mm fork / Integrated Cannondale App connectivity

Technology:
Confidence on edge
- No hesitant, fistful-of-brakes descending here. The ultra slack, 66.5° front end gives you the stability and control you need to really open it up on the downhills. Brake later. Corner harder. Pass on the descents.
Stay centered
- Scalpel HT's Proportional Response size-specific chainstays and steep seat angle keep you balanced between the wheels for better traction and power on the ups, and more confident control on the downs.
Lead with Lefty
- 110mm of the smoothest, most precise-handling ultralight front suspension out there. Extra-long fork offset brings extra agility to the super stable front end. Better control, more speed.
Drop the chatter
- Sculpted flex zones in the chainstays partner with dropped seatstays to eat up the chatter from rowdy terrain, boosting control, smoothing the ride, and minimizing fatigue. Go harder. Go faster. Go farther.

Built for...whatever
We made the Chameleon for riders who like to sculpt their ideal bike, and aren’t afraid to experiment. Whether 29er or mixed, geared or fixed, multiple major configuration transformations are made easy via the interchangeable dropouts. The low slung top tube and progressive geometry means this bike blends into whatever surroundings you place it. From raucous short-cuts across town to skipping the city altogether. It turns itself to trail exploration with the flip of an Allen key, thanks to the triple-bolt cargo cage mount under the downtube and standard bottle mount within the frame.
Design Details:
Aluminum frame
The Chameleon reinvents itself yet again, returning to the no-nonsense alu roots that make it our most versatile hard-working hardtail of all time.
MX or 29
Options for full 29 or MX setups means you can opt for speed and comfort for hauling or quick and nimble handling.
Single speed or gears
Adjustable dropouts make it a multi-geared trail charger to single-speed racer to bikepacking mule...and pretty much anything imaginable in between.
A Mule That Rules
Tougher and stronger than any race horse, the Chameleon blends stamina with agility to create a whole new kind of beast. A triple-bolt cargo cage mount under the downtube and additional mount within the frame ensures the Chameleon is ready to play wherever The Wild Things Are.
Fun-loving, shreddy spirit
The low slung top tube and more progressive geometry (65.5-degree head-angle and longer reach) provides all-trail capability.
Lifetime warranty
Built to last many lifetimes and supported by the legendary Santa Cruz rider support.
