Weight of Frame Norco Sight A 2014

My friend had put his Norco Sight frame on a scale WITHOUT suspension bolts and shock mounting hardware, but with headset cups. This is an M-size frame of Norco Sight A 2014 7.2. The result is 2820 grams.

Norco Sight Seatstay (rear triangle) Issue

I've read some info about Norco Sight frame issues at MTBR last autumn, and I've got affraid for my Norco Sight seatstay. Norco Sight is a great trail bike which can let you ride very big speeds like on an enduro bike. 650B wheels, great suspension and perfect geometry make it possible. I've rode approximately 1300km on my Sight and I usually inspect its seatstay for any cracks. I've just noticed a paint crack on the drive side of my bike's seatstay. It seems to me there'll be a crack one day. I hope Norco warranty will help me to solve this problem. Unfortunately it is not the only one rear triangle issue of Norco Sight A 2014 and Sight Killer B 2013.

Norco Sight: Crappy Stock Headset

I am very disappointed that Norco has installed a ball-bearing headset on my Norco Sight Alloy 7.2 2014 trail bike. A headset is not such an expensive part of a bike to save money on. The headset doesn't have proper seals, that's why it is better to grease the balls regularly, especially after rainy rides. Changing a headset requires special tools and should be done by experienced mechanic.
