If the trade-off was whatever's happened to your walls I'm not sure it was worth it...

Yeah rear drop outs will take some working out I think. Lots of pieces to put together.

Red and green too much for me. White forks would look classy.

Where did you get it? I'm not being lazy, but I can't really find any where that sells Banshee frames.
Looks sweet ๐Ÿ˜€

I got the frame from mtb shropshire and I am building it with the parts from my 06 enduro. Still not sure about the red wheels but I have black as well so I will try both. Will take my time building it but will post a pic when done. Somewhere with a neutral background this time though!!!!!

I would put all black bits on it apart from a green saddle (if you can get the same tone). It'll look a right mess with loads of other colours.

Bike finally built ready for christmas ride. Needed some help fitting chain device and front mech from guys at north west mountain bike (even they had a nightmare setting it up) but everything else was fairly straight forward. I can't wait to get on it. Definitely looks better with black wheels than the red ones.

No dropper = he will be pushing it up hill like a DH rider ๐Ÿ˜‰

If you do fit a dropper you should ditch the front mech - that spoils it for me.
