Just commit mate, buy a Nicolai G1 hahaha

As a Banshee and Nicolai G1 owner I support this message.

Banshees are nice bikes but the Nicolai is something else.

This was the most intriguing photo going around lately (on the left) which has a completely different dropout and flip chip design.

The right side we know is a V3 with custom cnc dropout.

Seems Keith has had his personal ‘prototype’ nicked. Maybe a bit to be gleaned from this photo?

Top tube thicker. Bottom tube at steerer tube also beefed up. Maybe dual crown compatible now? Wish he had gone external cable routing like the Madonna though.

...I think that might be an earlier prototype - same photo as one from a post in 2019.

The unpainted rocker link looks cool though they should offer that.

Presume [mention]teK-- [/mention] you saw the review by Quarter HP?

Only reason I didn’t pull trigger was seatpost insertion and that was there big call-out .

Here’s to hoping v4 !

I enjoyed that video. Always cool when MTB media do retrospectives rather than always jumping on the latest and greatest.

Just saw it. After over a month off the bike it inspired me to get out on the weekend!

Agree with all points raised. Especially that the seatpost insertion is mostly an issue only if your height is at the lower end of a frame size's range.

At 172cm I'm at the low end of Medium and a 150 post. After now becoming used to it, I can ride stuff as steep as the Slayer which had a 180 dropper.

First time I haven't kept a bike for at least 2 years...

Got a new rig on the way!

So the Banshee will be parted out soon plus other garage sale goodies.

Stay tuned!!

Assume this means you’re not sharing as yet what the new rig is? Any hints?
