Assembling: No problems, accept with the Hydro Twister. It kept me busy for a while, to get the thing working for what it was designed and to fit my personal demands. Combined with the AMP's geometry, low front end & internal headset you have definitely no "highrise" feeling while riding. Great.

The more I ride the AMP the more I get aware of what I missed on other frames...

ride it !

Cheers Dennis
