Ok hey everyone...I have had something on my mind for the longest time, and It is....should I buy the Banshee Morphine with the Gucci specs...Or go for the evil Imperial and build my own?...But before all of you say Imperial, hear me out. Right now, I just do light mountain biking, and I really want to get into some other parts of biking. I want a bike that can hold up to abuse, and can accept my styles of riding. I want to get into Dj-ing, Urban, regular trail riding, I want to do some big hucks, sweet drops, and want to even try out trials. Now, I have been looking around at the Banshee Morphine for a while now, but Im not to sure about urban/trials use. Also, I know with the Morphine im getting some great components instead of being lost trying to decide. BUT, recently MANY of the people on various forums have said the Imperial is sweet...but I dont know....the Morphine had a 10 year warranty....can the Imperial handle DH stuff...and good 20ft drops?....Im really looking forward to everyones replies here...and Im hooked on hardtails....:)
