Banshee Rune V2 26" & 650b Mountain Bike Frame

New for the 2014 biking season, the Banshee Rune V2 is receiving a couple of minor updates. First, you'll notice that the frame is now available in Raw, Florescent Green and Black on Black. As far as physical changes go, the 2014 Rune V2 is now going to include "stealth cable routing" for a dropper seat-post. As far as we've been told from Banshee thus far, the rest of the Rune V2 frame should remain the same as the 2013.

Production Timing: According to the most accurate information that we've received from Banshee, the first production run of 2014 Rune V2's frames should be released sometime in September or October of 2013. We do recommend that customers who want a 2014 Rune V2 right away place a pre-order now, as the Rune has been one of our most popular bikes in the 2013 season, and it has generally remained been sold out before the production runs were even finished. Your best chances of getting a new 2014 are by placing a pre-order now instead of waiting until September or October.

For those that dare to see whats on the other side the mountain. The Rune V2 was made for the weekend adventurer to explore the back country. Escape the madness of the cities and urban sprawl and return to nature, restore your inner peace and go to the places most people will never see. This sturdy frame with amazing pedaling qualities will keep you pedaling all day and get you easily down the steepest mountain when its time to come home.
