    Kiddin. Im out. Just alittle less than SX and that has a coil shock.

    For me a AM is a Lapierre if you are buying new.

    my 2010 medium is 31.6 seat tube frame was a warranty replacement for a cracked 2009 and had a shim fitted so the original 27.2 seatpost could be retained.

    FWIW I get on really well with mine, built up pretty heavy with pikes, double & bash, reverb, heavy duty rims and tyres brilliant trail bike but as others have said avoid <2010

    MWAhhhhhhhahahahahaha, mind you you’ll probably don’t see the difference.

    You’re head 😉 only kidding, the AM isn’t an old git bike like the 5.5 where you can just shift weight at the back and pootle along downhill. It’s a very modern and agressive bike to ride.

    Its a bicycle frame not a Fireblade sweetie. If I rode a Lapierre it’d feel LIGHTER for a start.
