ROS9

Edit: not that light though but damned playful

ROS9 is probably the most pricy too 🙂

If you are talking light - I presume(?) you are thinking Alu or Carbon. I have a Singular Buzzard. A great "fun 29er" but not light since it is steel... I've similarly been thinking of a lighter 29er.

Most of the suggestions I found have already been covered - there's also a commencal but it may no longer be available. I quite fancy a yelli screamy but really nearly a grand for an Alu frame! And the US dollar price stateside is certainly not equivalent. Halfords told me they could order in a Kona Taro if you are interested.

I forgot - Banshee Paradox

Ah yes, I had a Paradox for a while - very playful, but very harsh

Everyone who jumped on that started ragging it immediately which says a lot

The new yelli is out so you may be able to get a discount on some of the older stock?
Overspoke bikes in bewdley (or cranknuts as online canfield dist) had a couple left.

I've been riding a Parkwood since december. I don't have a bad word to say about it.

My fireline - (Ti original version of Parkwood) is my go-to MTB these days. short chain stays, and slack HA by 29er standards, with that bit of Ti compliance.
