2004 Chaparral Banshee. Was wondering what kind of frame this would be called?

Pic for reference:



I've always thought of it as a downhill frame, but I want to be sure.

oh and also if anybody could find a spec sheet including stuff like bottom bracket size and such that'd be great.

Oh and what rear derailleur would be good for it? My shifter does 8 speeds and the rear cassette has 8 speeds (they're off the same bike), but the shimano rear derailleur from my old bike doesn't fit on the Banshee.

Derailleur doesn't fit, I learned today, because I need a hanger. Now to figure out what kind of hanger I need... any suggestions?
You need a derailleur hanger?
Contact Banshee, see if they can help you.
I tried Wheels Mfg, but they don't seem to have Banshee hangers.
