  1. 1. Hypothetically speaking, you are about to pull the trigger and need to decided between the following uber bikes

    • Keep your Ibis Mojo HD
      6
    • Try a Turner 5-Spot
      3
    • Wait a month for a Morewood Sukuma
      16
    • Play it safe and risk going with an Ibis Mojo SL-R
      12
    • Go completely new and order an Intense Tracer 2
      6
    • Pray that Morewood's Mbuzi replacement is imminent
      5
    • Give the Santa Cruz Nomad Carbon a go
      27
    • Please the_wes and add the Commencal AM to the list
      9
    • Or go for the killer looking Yeti SB-66
      18

So what do you guys think? Let's say you know "someone" who could hypothetically be in this position and is trying to make up his (or her...) mind but can't...what would you do?

 

Bike Requirements:

* 66 - 67 Degree Head Angle (willing to go 0.5 either way)

* Min 150mm travel, Ideally 160mm travel, but no more than 170mm

* Must be AM rig (climb to the top, rip it down)

 

 

[No freaking 29er talk, please]

[but rather that than suggest a Specialized!]

 

EDIT: A LOT OF SUGGESTIONS SO FAR AND ALTHOUGH SOME HAVE BEEN FOOD FOR THOUGHT, NONE MADE IT TO THE LIST. SO PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE FOR WHAT'S ON THE LIST. Feel free to drop a comment below in any case.

Does Turner still manufacture the 6 pack? It used to be their 160mm beast. The Turner 5 spot looks awesome but just like my Intense 5.5 it is more trail bike than an AM bike.

6 pack is no more, RFX will be heir to the thrown. True about the 5-Spot, but so too is the Sukuma. Blurring the lines a bit...
