....recommendations please for an alternative to the Alma 29er S50. Budget circa £2k.

I already have a Swift so please don't recommend one! 🙂

Looking for a decent HT 2x 10, preferably carbon frame.

I have just bought a Yeti Big Top frame and with a bit of shopping around have managed to get all the bits for the build for about £2300

XT group
Reba fork from On-One
Stans Arch on Pro 2s
I went XTR brakes so could save some cash there.

I bought this in March. Pretty awesome. Comes in at £2199. Would never go back to a 26'er. I wanted the new Cannondale Flash, but seems hard to get hold of. At the end of the day, its carbon and got proper size wheels. What's not to like 😀
