[Closed] Something like a Nukeproof Mega Trail?

Saw the Mega Trail and it looks like it could be good but unlikely to see them for a while yet-anything similar available? Probably a few but I just can't think of any!

Thinking 130mm rear travel, Slack Head angle, tapered HT, maxle rear?

Well it appears to be a copy of the transition bandit.

So, how about one of them.

Yeti ASR5. Its ACE.

Santa Cruz Blur TrC

Maybe the new Genesis Grapple when it arrives.

Had an ASR 5 before and Blur TRC is a bit expensive for me right now.

Anyone know when the Genesis Grapil or indeed the Mega TR might be in shops?

Thought the grapel was 120? Mate has the bandit - its lovely. The new mega trail looks great, but IMO needs to be about a grand to steal the sales from the other bikes in that arena

Thank leku but I already had an ASR 5 and am not really looking at getting another.

Think the new Trek Fuel Ex range meets your spec. 130mm forks, slack HA, tapered HS and maxle rear. Quite like the look of the new Cannondale Trigger too. Again, like the Mega Trail I'm not sure when these will be in the shops.
