i've never really liked Carrera bikes. the Banshee seems to have mixed reviews. some love it some say it's garbage. i've not seen the full spec so i'll reserve judgement for now. do you really need a full suspension bike?

it could be worth it yeah. if it's been abused then you could end up spending a lot sorting it.

It means proper Banshee bikes from Canada have to be imported as Mythic.
