Jungle say Santa Cruz US won't be getting any replacement EBBs in, I think I've managed to get one from Stif but if not I guess it's new frame time? Are there any other EBBs that will fit?

Not sure if this will fit, it may be worth a call to Phil Wood

I think a Bushnell will fit - a bit pricey however, US shipping and all...

Not sure if they are the same EBB's but I think you can buy the bushness-EBB's from ceeway [url= http://www.ceeway.com/NEWPARTSPAGES/Other%20BB%20shells.htm ]HERE[/url] but you have to e-mail them to ask for a price.

Thanks for the links, if it's going to be pricey I'd probably go with a new frame.

This might be your lucky day. Or maybe not, depends on whether you're going to use your dead EBB as an excuse for a new frame.
I have spare one kicking around in the shed. Looks like the retro bushnell one in the link above. If you're interested drop the me the measurements of yours and I will check mine tomorrow. Drop me a pm if interested.
Cheers.....

I've just fitted a Bushnell EBB to my Chameleon, it's a gorgeous bit of kit.

I got mine from Charlie the Bike Monger for £99.

A lot more than the Santa Cruz version, but way, way better. I don't anticipate any problems or need to replace it any time soon.

Sorry to resurrect the thread. But I was wandering if portlyone found a solution.
Charlie the bike monger is showing out of stock.

I'm in a similar predicament and don't want to lose the frame.

Fingers crossed tandemonium still has one available.
