Quality if you're doing massive shit. My buddy bought one for 5 grand and I'm doing the shit he does on a Stinky. Just a waste of money.

Well Nigel is insane... But what I'm saying is that him getting a Banshee would be like him getting a 5 grand Cannondale.

hey,
if u got the money and know of a good shop then get a planet x (http://www.planet-x-bikes.com/) and custom build your bike, then you know you're getting exactly what you want you need to have a good local bike shop or a friend who knows his way around bikes tho, or youre proabably gonna get screwed

GIVER OR GO HOME!
