Banshee Titan V3- Banshee attitude meets long travel 29er.
The Banshee Titan V3 is an entirely new, ground up, no compromise, 155mm travel 29er designed to tackle the hardest enduro days. Don’t be fooled by the fact it doesn’t have huge amounts of rear travel. It will climb and handle far better than the cumbersome competition, and dominate when pointed downhill.
The suspension is incredibly supple off the top due to optimized leverage curve and zero friction linkage to achieve maximum traction . As you ride faster, harder and the trail gets rougher the progression and characteristics of the linkage and stiffness of the frame really come into their own with huge amounts of confidence inspiring control.
Prepare to grin manically when charging down through technical, fast, steep, and fun descents. Are you brave enough to explore your personal limits, because the Titan will take you there and encourage you to go further and faster than you imagined possible.

Reviews
Vital MTB - ‘Banshee's KS2 suspension platform is awesome. Say bye-bye to bumps without the backend going dead or not having a sufficient platform off which to get some pop.’
Pinkbike long term review - ‘The Titan is a friendly beast of a bike with an appetite for the steep and deep… the stability and capacity for smoothing out rough trails is very impressive.’
Spoke Magazine - ‘Get ready to let your hair down…point the nose down a rough section of track and you’re laughing.’
Inception Cyclery - ‘CALM, COMPOSED, and F%&king CONFIDENT!’
mtb-news.de ‘Once you get used to the Titan, it begins to show its play instinct. Despite its size, and travel, it is amazingly easy to move through the air and over the trail.’
singletracks.com 'It’s a bike that feels at home on the roughest and rowdiest trails, and you could also take it out for a day-long pedal to try and keep up with your buddies.'
MBR Magazine 'Point the Titan down anything steep and the elevated front end makes it super-easy to get your weight rearward while keeping your head up so you actually see where you’re charging. And boy can you charge on this bike. In fact, the Titan’s ability to iron out square-edge hits is almost as impressive as how easy it was to set up'
