Looks really cool. never heard of them, so respect on that. Looks stealthy but solid.
How are you finding the pikes? not had mine long and they are pretty good.

antop34 replied... on 12 August 2008

Had a leak already, cheers for the info, have changed the spring and also put MX oil in there. Seems to have done the trick.

Dingo2024 replied... on 16 July 2008

thanks for the rating-Mythic is the UK brand name for Banshee bikes of Canada; due to Halfords and Carrera it had to be changed. The pikes are really good; but did have an oil leak from the u turn nob when they were upside down. read this link-I have used car engine oil in mine as they recommend at it is much better

the frame looks odd, and the protectors on the cranks look rubbish might aswell let them get scratched..... however respect for going with a unknown brand and a nice overall spec

Dingo2024 replied... on 19 July 2008

unknown brand to you maybe-if you don't know Banshee your not a real mtber
