hi there
I ride both 26 and 29
i'm trying to find a good solid slack 29er frame to build up. what is out there?
i currently have an orange clockwork which is great, but i want to build a beefed up version to have fun with.

any suggestions?
Cheers

Take a look at the Yeti BigTop

I built mine up with a adjustable travel Talas 95/120 fork with a 12/142 rear axle, hope hubs and Stans arch ex wheels

The chromag surface is pretty sweet! i have one and love it, also the Kona honzo is something worth checking out.

Most popular aggressive-yet-fun HTis the Canfield Yelli screamy. There's a 2500 post thread about them on MTBR.
Kona honzo- super short CS, no FD shred machine.
Diamondback Mason- newest addition to the AM HT; slackest out there. Good price and the frame comes with a dropper post. I'll write a review when I get mine.
