Ive only had this frame for a couple week but i would recommend it for sure, such a nice frame. One con i do have with it is that the rear triangle is narrow, I had to by a skinnier tire to fit and if your wheel isnt trued all the time it will rub on the frame.
3 can say enough about this frame with its small chain stay low stand over and super lightness !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Simply the quickest of the start gate. Super stiff and short rear end. I am going to keep this little beast for a long time. Brilliant!!!
This Bike is brand new! I'm getting it in 3 weeks! It is the best bike I have had yet, it is just awsome on the dirt! I would take this bike over any Norco I have ever had!

The amp is tight, light and ready to take flight! With 400-425mm chainstay with horizontal dropouts welded to light but stiff internally ribbed chain and seat stays that back end of the frame is slammed, which makes manualing a breeze, and rotations in the air a walk in the park. The Amp uses a 7005 T6 custom hydro-formed triple butted tube set with integrated gusseting for high strength with minimal weight. At the front you will find a precision machined head tube, compatible with lightweight zero stack integrated headsets to keep the weight down and the front of the bike low. What does all this mean? It means that the frame feels perfectly at home high in the air at your local jump spot, and can accelerate out of the gate faster than any other if you feel like racing some 4X. It means that you can ride a bike that can take the abuse that you throw at it, but only weighs 2kg (4.4lbs). All in all this bike will be more nimble, faster, stronger, lighter and easier to do tricks on due to super low stand over than any other bike out there.
