Personally I would get an Alpine if you want slacker angles than a PA, but the PA is pretty good with Pike's on as I think thats pretty much the standard build, and I am fairly sure no one has broken one yet (Mike can confirm) even when 4X racing, and casing everything trying to break one.

For the Money that the Evil and Transition go for a Curtis has be a better bet as you can tweak the angles and TT, plus it comes with free frame repair for life it you do manage to knacker it somehow.

Cotic's at nearly £500 seem to be just too much money now.

If you aren't tied to steel the mmmBop looks like it could be very good, and 2lbs lighter than equivalent steel frames is a shedload of weight.
