Banshee Bikes

It gives us great pleasure to announce that XXIV will be exclusively distributing Banshee Bikes within Australia. Banshee have proven that they make the most indestructible frames around whether it be for the hardest Free Riding, Downhilling, All Mountain, Enduro or Cross Country. These bikes are built to perform at the very highest standards for years.

Banshee are still a relatively new company but they have a long history in mountain biking. Pippin Osbourne founded Banshee in 2002. An inductee into The Mountain Bike Hall of Fame and founder of Syncros, as well as working with such companies as Easton and Schwinn, Pippin created the company to satisfy the growing demand for high performance, durable bikes, with a solid warranty to back them up.

The Banshee line up now consists of nine frames. Catering for the most extreme Free Rider, the weekend All Mountain warrior or the lightweight Cross Country and Enduro whippets, Banshee have an indestructible, high performance frame for everyone.

XXIV will be offering the entire Banshee range (frames and complete bikes, including all colours and sizes) with package options on rear shocks (for dual suspension frames).
