Frame only, same price, which do you buy and why?
Freedom of contract. We sell them guns that kill them; they sell us drugs that kill us.
Banshee Spitfire or Knolly Endorphin
Which frame to build up?
I’ve owned both. I’d take the endorphin, the traction of the 4x4 suspension layout I found more impressive than the poppy qualities of the ks link suspension design. The endorphin also felt more capable and sturdier.
Have not ridden either , but have buddies with Knolly,s and they truly love them . I also like the fact the Knolly has a bottle mount inside the frame , bottom mounts suck . I would consider the Knolly myself .
Depends what you want it for. I have ridden both, and found the spitty to be more capable on the downhills. For the shore I would pick that one. For riding just about anywhere else I would pick the Knolly. They are both super fun, playful bikes.
I own a spitfire and I don't have any complaints (I always ride with a pack, so the bottom of down-tube water bottle mount is a not an issue for me). I have zero experience with Knolly's personally.
