Win this one-of-a-kind Banshee Legend MX from AstonMTB!
I originally tested the Banshee Legend 29 for Pinkibike back in 2018 and it was a great bike. Last year we gave away an insane golden custom-built Legend from Rulezman, fully loaded with amazing parts and custom-tuned for the winner.
This summer I tested the prototype of this featured machine in Pila, Italy, with fastAF pilot Tobias Doering. Then I lost my GoPro with all the footage in the forest somewhere, d’oh! But, a written review will be published here soon.
For now, here are the words from the creator, Dave Rulezman:
The first MX 29/27” Legend in the World featuring:
✅ RRT MX LINKAGE
✅ ZEROBACK PLATE
✅ DORADO37 RRT LE “Showa tribute”
✅ HC-V1 CLAMP
✅ TTX25 RRT
RRT MX LINKAGE
The Legend 29” is a true 29/29 DH weapon which should NOT be used with a 27.5” rear wheel to avoid the BB becoming too low and the HA too slack.
The customised RRT MX linkage allows you to ride the bike with a 27.5” rear wheel with the geometry kept naturally in the right place.
The linkage leverage is also designed to reduce the overall progression and to increase the mid-range support for better management of hits, more traction, less dive, and support for the lack of anti-squat caused by the ZEROBACK plate.
ZEROBACK PLATE
This is a one-piece do-it-all component: a bash guard, a chain retention system and a kickback zeroing system, featuring: 7075 T6 construction, 50-micron hard-anodised pulleys with sealed bearings, Delrin replaceable bash guard, and a port for checking the frame main pivot torque!
The ZEROBACK PLATE removes any kickback through the pedals, making the Legend feel chain-less; separating the suspension from the chain forces increases traction and removes ANY kickback on your pedals. This system is designed to work ONLY with the dedicated custom-tuned RRT TTX25 (or any proper tuned other brand shock) + the custom RRT MX linkage.
DORADO 37 LE Showa
The best DH fork available today, Limited Edition, traction to max levels - custom-tuned to match the pilot style, weight and skill level.
This LE11 SHOWA edition features all the performance of the classic RRT series Dorado37 with a unique and different look , a tribute to SHOWA moto forks, including custom anodized gold outer tubes, chrome leg guards, polished crowns and finished with Ti bolts.
TTX25 RRT
The best shock of the universe as far as today!
This CCDB / TTX25 RRT is a custom build from Rulezman on a now rare-as-hell Double Barrel chassis. This brand new CCDB/TTX25 with custom gold tubes and reservoir, two-way shimmed main piston, twin-tube circuit, quad independent register, low hysteresis, and maximum sensitivity, totally tuned to offer the best with the new leverage ratio system of the MX RRT linkage.
Each winner will receive the shock ad-hoc tuned (including the correct spring of course) for his weight and riding level. In 2023 the TTX25 RRT is still the best shock we can ride on the planet.
HC-V1 CLAMP
15mm offset, 64mm wide, light, stiff, unique.
