A Legend (Banshee) In Sunny Queensland - Australia

























Hey Guy's,

My new Legend arrived recently and has been built by master bike constructor, Darren Bowman of Brisbane Boutique Bikes. Whilst the bike has not been raced as yet (next weekend in round 3 Sunshine Series at Toowoomba) I have put it through it's paces at Clear Mountain Brisbane riding with Rhys Willemse and Tamryn Murrell and it performed way beyond my expectations!! The ride is awesome with the Legend's geometry, so much so that smashing berms and hitting big drops is like riding a cushion airbag and the steering is more precise than I expected. The rear end sticks to the ground like s**t to a blanket and just gives you so much confidence to go harder and faster - bring on the races!! I have attached a couple of photos of me and the bike in action at Clear Mountain.
