After a 2 year absence from their range, Banshee will once again be dealing the Wildcard this summer. You'll have to act fast if you want in though, as this hand is strictly limited to 50 individually numbered frames worldwide.
Banshee would like your help to decide on the colour-scheme for the limited edition frames. Place your bets in the poll below & the colour-scheme with the most votes will go into production.
The Wildcard is an extremely versatile Freeride frame with adjustable geometry & suspension travel. This relatively lightweight frame has a super low stand-over height which makes it great in the air & very easy to trick. If you're looking for the ideal bike for turning up the style in the bike park, the Wildcard fits the bill. If you'd rather take on the backcountry, the Wildcard offers a full-length seat tube & cable guides for a front derailleur. Equally at home shredding turns as it is hitting jumps, the Wildcard is a whole lot of fun.
Sizes - small, medium, large
Travel - adjustable between 130mm & 165mm
Geometry - adjustable to suit your riding style
Frame spec - Hydroformed 7005 Alloy construction with 1.5" head tube, ISCG05 tabs & internally ribbed stays for increased stiffness
The Wildcard will be available in August 2012. See your local Banshee Dealer for full details on how to buy in.

They have the potential to make amazing bikes, and they do.
I love mine but they 100% need to do some tweaking to the geo to fix these problems. LISTEN UP BANSHEE

WC was super reliable with its simple construction, dependable suspension system and sealed ball bearings with tough axle hardware, and brilliant all round geometry with 115mm-160mm adjustable fork like Lyric Coil U-Turn

absolutely loved my WC, sold dozens of them to UK riders (under the Mythic name) and would like to see more than 50 in this LTD production run!
but it was absent?
the banshee site could be a bit more up to date in general (frame colours etc.)
and some info about the rune v1.5 and v2 would be nice
