I have both... I have a Banshee up here somewhere with the coil... This bike is much lighter and more nimble, but the air spring is harder to dial in. The coil is pretty much set it and forget it, but it is noticably heavier. If you plan on much pedaling, I'd go for the air... if you are just DHing go for the coil.... I'll vote your bike as soon as I find it.
Well, I built this one too, but that's not the reason I'm giving it a 10. I can't see for the type of bike it is, any weaknesses. I guess if you like XT better than X9, or Fox over Marzocchi, or Hope over Magura, I guess... ok... But with maybe the exception of the Truvativ cranks, everything on this bike is top tier, or one step shy, (because chances are, it will break before it wears). I'll try to update with a pic that does it justice, because this bike has even my shop guys drooling.
DHX Air, All Mountain SL, Thompson, King HS, x9s, Transition Revolution Wheels, Kenda 2.5s, Spank bars, Candy SLs, Magura Julies - 32 lb. Light Freeride/Enduro - This is my pedaling bike... Good contrast to my gravity bike, which I'll also post.
