Well I finally toasted the stock axle on my Banshee. It was just a matter of time I guess. Anyway, I'm looking into aftermarket axles and I'm just curious if anyone can offer me some info on what works best on Banshees. I am obviously looking at Lonestar and DuraBlue, but I have been told to get Lonestar over DuraBlue. I am also looking at the possibility of getting another stock axle because I can get one for waaaay cheap on Ebay. I know that since I bent one I'll bend another, but I just want to get my bike on it's feet again.

Also, if I do get an aftermarket axle do I have to get new sprocket and brake hubs and new wheel hubs or are the splines the same as stock? Thanks.

 

Id say go for a raptor alxe. I did a MASSIVE over shoot of a huge dune jump (20 foot to flat) and the itp .190's bent, not the axle. I was impressed.

Is the Raptor axle the same length and have the same splines as a stock Banshee axle?
