Hi!
I really need to know if you guys think a dhx 5.0 will fit my banshee scream from 2003? The fact is that the dhx isn't avaiable in Sweden yet so I can't try it before ordering. I have to order it from the states and I have to be 99,99 % sure about that it will fit my frame. The only potential
problem is the air valve hitting the downtube at full compression... If it does, is it possible to put it upsidedown?

So what you guys think about it?

I would be very grateful for answers! :love:

I think it would be fine. Yes you can flip the shock around.

I spoke to Banshee last weekend, they said the new frames were specifically modified to fit the DHX and the 6way.

So, i would think the only to find out if it will work with yours is to try it. I think it will hit the downtube though

. I think it will hit the downtube though

Then he can just file the downtube

OK!
I finally got mail from banshee now and the engineer said that it was not possible. I'll go for an avalanche instead.
Thanks btw!
