Hardtails on Hard Trails: Flying Monkey Trail on a Banshee Paradox V3 Plus Mullet

I never thought I'd ride Flying Monkey on any bike, especially a hardtail. This one really got in my head. I had heard so much about it that it already psyched me out before I got to it. It wasn't awful, but the exposure and consequences were the real deal. I'd love to head back on a full suspension, but I'm glad I was able to ride so much on the hardtail. The paradox as a 29+/27.5+ mullet did even better than expected. And that Atomik rear wheel held up without a single issue. I'm supre impressed with that wheel.
