I'm looking for a single pivot 29er or 27.5 so just wondering what other manufacturers there are. I'm a bit out of touch these days.

Ta.

Curious as to why you'd insist on single pivot?

Plenty of linkage driven single pivots out there.

i dont think he did specify non linkage just the 2 examples are.

do morewood still exist? they were basically a orange copy

saracen are but there are issues with bushings/linkage going by the thread on here.

Morewood don't do single pivot any more, all bikes either linkage or split pivot

Assumed from the examples that the OP wasn't after a linkage

I wouldn't dismiss Orange. The new Five Mk2 is an amazing all-rounder.

I'm not too fussed. I like simplicity and low maintenance though. Any other suggestions for big wheeled full suspension appreciated.

Thanks.

I know its 26" but I would recommend the Cove Peeler DH frame. Mates had one since '09 and its absolutely bombproof, 9 inches of rear travel too. One on pink bikefor £130......

Has this suddenly become bikeradar?
