New / Modern Hard Tail recommendations please...

Evening all I'm after a modern Geo 'do it all' hardtail to replace my Mk3 Titanium fully rigid Stooge. Winter is approaching and my fair weather / summer SC Hightower will get put to bed so looking for a winter / slop bike. I'm after something that'll: Take a decent beating but not beat me up Ideally steel frame 29er 130+ bouncy Go down fast and stay stable ie slack HT Go up well steep SA Not feel awkward on the flats Have a very 'poppable' front end (the stooge was great at that) so that you can easily loft it over trail obstacles I've looked in detail (ie compared back to back geo numbers against my Hightower) at Pace RC529, Kona Honzo ESD, Pipedream Moxi MX3, Bird Forge, Stiff Squetch to name a few so just asking for other recommendations from those that know.
