I have one, which is just being rebuilt after replacing it with a full suss for most of my riding. I've had it 3 years and it has coped admirably with my local riding in the Peaks and further afield in The Lakes, trail centres, Spain and the Alps. A really good, versatile hardtail. I ran it with a fairly weighty build for rocky riding, which worked really well. Any fork travel from 90-130mm worked well for me, although I kept it towards the top end of the scale for most of my Peaks riding. I've heard it comes into it's own with a lighter fork (which I never tried) not that I noticed it lacking, so that may be worth bearing in mind with the build.
