Thoughts on DVO Diamond D1 vs Lyrik Ultimate 2021

I’m thinking of building up a 2nd bike, and I’m pretty much decided on everything but the fork. There are some previous year’s models around here and there, and I’m considering a DVO Diamond D1 or a 2021 Lyrik Ultimate (maybe with a B1). 29er and 150mm. I’m 80kg and don’t go hugely fast or big, but I don’t particularly rate my 2021 Pike Ultimate on rougher descents (although it’s fine everywhere else) so was looking for something a bit more plush & capable. The D1 is a bit heavier, has a 140-160mm range, and gets some great comments in forums but not much by ways of reviews. The Lyrik will do 140-180mm so is maybe a bit more flexible for a later frame change. It’s also the known quantity with a squillion rave reviews. Thoughts please?
