Banshee
bikes will come out with 2 new bikes soon. The "Morphine"
hardtail and the "Scream" full-suspension freeride
bikes will definitely turn heads with their radically-styled
tubesets and solid colours.
Frame
material will be made from Easton 7005 aluminium. Brand names
like Marzocchi, Funn, Truvativ and Hayes are just some of the
parts that make up the delectable package on these bikes.
The
beautifully-crafted horinzontal dropouts of the Morphine caught
our eye and left us transfixed at the photo for the next minute
or two. We thought that it was real cool....until we saw the
even beautifully crafted rocker arm of the Scream!

Both
bikes will be offered in 2 packages, the "Gucci" package
and the "Journeyman" package. These different builds
offer a myraid of different parts to suit the budget of differnt
riders.
Keep
your eyes peeled for the launch of their website, hopefully soon.
We just can't wait to see more bikes from Banshee.
