Here's a cool video that Simon made for us.
Simon is Banshee's new French DH and 4X racer and he is the guy responsible for helping us get the geometry so bang on.
So far his results have been great. He was the top amatuer racer at the French 4X championships beating all but 4 pros to place 5th overall. Also last night I received this message from Patrick at XCYTT [our French distributor]
"Hi Jay,
There was this weekend the DH Championship of Belgium, Simon wanted to participate but he has no DH bike.
He has therefore done the displacement with the Rampant, the track was technical and not adapted to a bike with small travel, then some riders looked it with astonishment and smile.
Statement, Simon finish fourth, 2 seconds off Nico Vincq, UCI rider.
Patrick - XCYTT"
Me and Keith are super stoked that this bike is proving to be such a contender. So here you are... Simon Cardon

Cool:
loads of suspension travel does not necessarily make you a superhero... :)
Hahaha, its so cool to see Simon beating a yeti pro 4x racer out of the gate on the rampant and pulling away down the course!
Good work Simon, you shred!
Being able to rail corners like that, it doesn't surprise me at all how well Simon did! Top notch skill to roast on the small bike man
Wow, Simon is a really great rider.He rules on the 4x and in the DH too.To do 4th place with a short travel bike makes him a hero.
But it seems that there are lots of people waiting for the DH bike, not just Simon.
Yes there are alot of people waiting for the DH bike cough **keith**.
