I don't do much slopestyle, but I bet it rocks at that too. I built mine a couple weeks ago, frame was in perfect conditions, shipped quick, and everything is ready to install, the no need to face brake mounts or BB, or headset, neither shock mounts.
Frame is very light for how strong it is, my built is around 26 pounds.
I got mine on the Raw color option, stickers comes separate, so you can customize the decals the way you want, or just leave the bike without them, this bike feels like a hardtail when you pedal it, the harder you push on the pedals, the stiff the suspension becomes, but whenever you hit a bump, the suspension kick in and smooths it out; also the frame is very stiff laterally, no flex when you rail berms, thanks to the one piece rear triangle and to the bushing pivot system, also the tubes in the rear triangle have a I beam shape inside, the front triangle uses a nice hydro-formed tubing, is really clean and strong; the shock mount actually braces the down tube not like other brands that just weld two shock mount plates to the down tube, making the shock mount weak; brake and derailleur housing have a very nice routing, with well thought placed housing holders. The bike is very predictable when I jump it, drops are easy, the standover is very low, and the BB too, this bike is perfect for racing and for the average Dirt jumper and freride rider. Loving mine! the Banshee guys are the nest people to deal with, the company is rider owned, what else you want! get yours and you will experience what feels to ride a Banshee!.
