So this explains my night... were out riding... trying to do some filming in the night... didnt work!.... so we restorted to pictures.... anyways im doing this hip. i go the first time, it was pretty sketch cause of the dark... second time it was pretty sweet, but i got blinded by the camera. When i landed it felt like a cusion... i thought i landed in soft dirt. i go up to the top.... just about to go.... im like wait i think my forks bent ( 2003 dj 1) i look im like o shit.... but the fork looks fine. i look at my frame :eek: "OH WAIT MY HEADTUBE IS CRAKED IN HALF...... A sad death to my norco rampage that lasted 4 mounths under a year. Now im hoping for warrenty :) .... there will be video of the frame soon lol.

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.
