My Marin Wolf Ridge 140 which I'll part ex?
Just looking at frame only thanks, new and about £1000/1500 budget
What's wrong with the Lapierre? Only ask because I'm in the same market as you..
Btw Orange Five is the obvious (but tempting) answer.
Nothing wrong with it just had an issue with local dealer that i wont go into and i just want to break any link with lapierre.
i've got a lapierre 314, 2009 model and im thinking of changing too.... got that urge for a trek ex9....
How about the non-niche 5?

orange blood would fit the bill if you want something to play on
Marin quad 140 if you're more worried about the downs than the ups. They're heavy but the geometry is amazing.

These are a fantastic deal right now and a superb machine. If you like a more progressive and aggressive trail bike then maybe this could work for you. They go up like a homesick angel and down like a mini DH bike and a 30lb build is do-able or sun that if you go for a small/med frame.
Nice
I have an Orange 5 frame (and fork if required for sale, 16", 2010 model, chrome grey, mint condition.
Can't go far wrong with that, im only selling as im upgrading to a bigger hitting bike. I test rode a few bikes and the Orange felt the best, climbs well and decends like a thing that's good at decending, corners superb and is easy to jump and land.
At the risk if sounding biased, it is an outstanding bike, and my frame is like new, comes with Hope headset, Hope bb, Hope seat skewer and rear wheel skewer, all in blue.
Turner 5 Spot, Ibis Mojo, SC LT2, Chumba VF, Orange 5 would be on my list, to look at.

Knolly Endorphin
Pace RC405, I chose one after testing quite a few alternatives. Mojo is nice too though.
