Banshee Rune V3.2 - It just keeps getting better.

Since the initial Rune was released, it has been one of the cornerstones of the Banshee line up. Racing Enduro, or tackling an epic big mountain adventure, the Rune has had you covered. No other bike inspires confidence like a Rune.

Evolving along side the KS2 Link suspension design. The Rune V3.2 now benefits from the new shock cage’s load isolation, and a significantly lower center of mass… And, you asked for it… space for a full size water bottle inside the frame.

Completely redesigned, highly refined, and better than ever. The Rune V3.2 builds on everything the Rune has always been. Incredibly balanced geometry and perfect weight distribution. The Rune V3.2 will put a huge smile on your face. Hold on, because this bike wants to go fast, get rowdy, and treat you to one hell of a good time!

All V3.2 models have seen refinements to best utilize the most up to date production and assembly technologies. As well as geometry refinements to maximize the benefits of todays most popular fork options and common axle to crown heights.
