Hi ready to change my Yeti for something else but interested in what owners repalced theirs with and why.

Cheers

Transition Smuggler. I didn’t get on with the SB95, particularly on the uphills but, to be fair, I think the bike was a bit small (bought a L, but should have gone XL). No regrets with the Smuggler.

Saracen Ariel 15x - I had the SB95c and I just didn't get on with it at all, despite having decent kit on it.  The Saracen, despite it's dodgy pivots was a revelation - so much more fun to ride and more stable at speed.

I've had 4 Yeti's and I've not got on with any of them - you'd think I'd learn my lesson....

SC Tallboy 3.

Had my SB95 for over 4 years and was best-riding bike I’ve owned until I rode the Tallboy. Also considered the Hightower but thought it was too close in travel/nature to my other bike (Nukeproof Mega 290). Frame only and everything swapped straight over from the Yeti.

I also considered the Smuggler but as with the Hightower, I guessed it’d be too similar to my Nukeproof. If I had only one bike it’d be a Hightower or Smuggler though.
