Of course it's a good bike:)
marksnet makes a comment about the tubes being thin and shitty.
MY comment means..."What do you expect...it's a Rampage"
:)
Tough break Ian (no pun intended). I'll probably sell off my Balfa this weekend, otherwise it would make a great frame for your style of crazy riding.
Hopefully the warranty will go through.
