Pros: Awesome tracking capability.
With the proper fork and rear shock it's a point and shoot kinda bike.
Flickable.
Lightweight for a DH bike

Cons: none

Recommendation: This is my DH ride. Love it. Built up I have it easily at 36.5lbs and I still can shave weight on things like singleply tires and lighter saddle / post...
Instantly I noticed that the bike is a perfect balance between stable at speed yet still flickable. Once the suspension is set this bike sails over everything with no issues. Absorbing drops / doubles / step downs is awesome. A big kuddos to Keith and Jay at Banshee for coming up with this monster of a machine.
