This pic really makes me think about getting out there again. Nice trail.

Looks like a VPP rear suspension. How do you like it?

thanks!

oreo, it's somewhere between VPP and DW. This second version of this bike (Banshee Spitfire V2) does pedal really well, much better in granny than the first version. Only done 2 rides on it so far, still dialing things in but I'm liking this bike.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm pretty picky about rear suspensions, and have only ridden two that I like at all (a GT I-drive, and a horst link, which is what I own). I've also heard that the new Trek rear suspension is nice too, but those bikes have gotten really pricey.

FWIW I loved my VPP Intense. That being said my single pivot Foes rides like a dream so....

I've gotten some of the guys at work into mountain bikes and now we have a weekly thing going on saturday mornings....
