Bender rides for Banshee now :D...

Thats too much bike for me. Looks great but definately a very specific bike. Can't wait to see one in person.

Thank god they got a 26 inch wheel on it ;)

I agree with Maelstrom... although my head is starting to spin as I try to envision/figure out the various travel paths of the rear suspension bits.

I hope the BigHit DH bikes still stay relatively the same.

It will. From whatI heard that is their high end model race bike. Not for the regular rider. They will still have the standard bighit in the various prices :)

it's still a 4-bar linkage you guys... you're making out to be something from space.

All's they did was relocate the rear shock.. and in doing so had to make a different linkage to push that shock in its new location.

It still uses the same Horst-Link properties & axle paths...
