    The Foxy is 140mm. You’ll be wanting a Dune.

    Or this one, if you don’t want forward geometry.

    This:

    My Evil Uprising. Technically 150mm but has a 160mm fork so hopefully you can forgive me….. 😉

    love the Ion 16’s lines

    or the Mach 6 for the more organic look

    Still think it’s probably this, if you can find one.

    Although, this (what I ended up with instead) is growing on me in an industrial, functional way. Does look much uglier in bigger frame sizes though I think.

    Still loving the Turner 6 pack. 8 years old and still great.

    Yep the Nomad is the best looking.

    I’m not sure about the enve wheels, they need shiny black decals, instead of white, but other than that it wins so far

    The Canfield Bros Balance is nice.

    Cool head badge as well.

    I’ve been checking out the yt capra recently.

    Looks good value for money.

    Capra or the Canyon thing Joe Barnes rides.

    All the above fail due to lack of yellow wheels.

    The intense looks way nicer than the nomad IMO (Apart from all that purple bling obvs)

    I really like the alpine 160 too, would love a ride on one of the new ones.

    Commencal’s new FS for 2015 with the top shock mount hidden in the top tube looks lush, almost has the lines of a hardtail.
    Most of the newer good looking FS bikes seem to be aping HT lines with sloping top tubes seamlessly joining similarly angled seat stays.

    That Nomad makes baby Jesus cry – murdered out with “LOOK AT MY WHEELS!!!”

    I do like a nice Rocket. Should have moved quicker and bought one when I had the chance.

    I like that Ion 16 as well, quite a similar look.

    Re the wheels, I’m STILL waiting on some dark grey stickers to replace the shouty ones (that look pretty second hand now, and not quite as loud actually)

    I was quite taken with the focus Sam 1.0 I saw in les Deux alpes this summer:

    http://www.focus-bikes.com/gb/en/bikes/2014/mtb-fullsuspension/sam.html

    It was absolutely stunning in the flesh and incredibly quiet out on the hill. Daft price though.

    Ion16 you say??

    Awesome bit of kit, can’t fault it in any way!

    On the basis of I bought it because I love it then my Spitty 🙂

    Sorry it’s not an up to date one as I’ve upgraded it a bit since this was taken. It’s now got a One-Up 40t, Reverb and a set of Fox 36’s on it.

    Can’t post a photo because I’m crap, but the new Cannondale Jekyll Team looks V nice to me.

    Ok so it’s not quite 160mm but I still love my bronson. So versatile, my hardtails have become virtually redundant now.

    I’ve always had a soft spot for these – just love the organic flowing lines…

    I was breaking that chain – I’ve never owned a bike with that much travel – I mince too much to make use of the travel I have got!

    Anyone else think these bikes basically all look the same? Generic ‘gnarly’ slack fashion bikes?

    That Canfield up there is very very nice indeed.

    Lots of good looking bikes these days:

    Special because it’s a forum member’s

    Aesthetics are a funny thing eh? I’d have to wear a blindfold if I was riding that Knolly or the Metas above.

    But the Intense in raw is quite arousing.

    I think I’ve come round to Nicolais too.

    Those Nicolai’s get my vote too. Looks much better than the bendy tube lot.
