Description:

Overview
The Endurance Frame was designed specifically with the demands of outdoor performance in mind, offering extra large locking precision wheels, and sturdy oversized tube construction. The Endurance Frame easily navigates rough, uneven outdoor terrain and still can be perfectly suited to indoor concert events as well. Both ends of the Endurance Frame feature the renowned Adams height adjustment system, allowing you to effortlessly adjust the playing height of the instrument to fit any size player. An accessory bar runs the full length of the frame allowing you to add drums, bells, cymbals, and virtually any instrument that can be mounted using a standard hardware mount. This creates a multi-instrument percussion set-up that can easily expand as your needs change. The Adams accessory bar is completely square, providing a slip free mounting surface that will not creep or rotate, even under extremely heavy loads. Standard Pearl PC-50 and PC-10 Rack Clamps are used to mount all accessories to the bar, and the PC-10 accommodate standard 7/8" diameter pipes and smaller. The Adams Endurance Field Frame is easily the most sturdy, best designed, highly adjustable frame on the market today.
The Adams Endurance Field Frame is offered as standard equipment for the new MCKF-43. MAKF-46, and MAKF-50 Marimbas, XSKF-35 Xylophone, AV-1F and AV-2F Vibraphones. It is also available separately as an add on package for all other Adams Artist, Concert and Soloist Series Marimbas, 4.0 Concert and Soloist Xylophones, and the AV-1 Vibraphone.

This frame will undoubtedly stand up to rough conditions, but it is heavy. Excessively so. The corner posts don't need to be as heavy duty as they are, since all the weight of the instrument ends up being supported by the height-adjustment crank mechanism. Oddly, though, the rail on the front seems to bend more easily than one would expect, given the construction of the rest of it. A set of crotales mounted to the xylophone rail bent it, and the attachment of the rail to the rest of the frame is relatively flimsy compared to the rest of the frame.
All in all, a good frame, but perhaps a bit heavier than necessary.

I recently recieved this frame with a 4.3 oct. syntetic marimba for my HS pit. Assembly of this frame was a breeze even though i didnt find the directions until the end.
I was particularly please that Adams kept the same height adjustment system, and was also pleased at how similar this is to the voyager frame.
Transportation of this instrument is second to none. The size and quality of the tires allow you to move the instrument over very poor terrain easily.
The only draw back is the size of the frame. Some schools may not be able to make use of this instrument simply because it cannot fit through doors. However I do highly reccoment this frame for anyone looking for a serious marching instrument.
