Probably a bit too obvious an answer but this fills your spec: [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/nukeproof-mega-tr-frame-rockshox-monarch-rt3-2013/rp-prod81838 ]MEGA TR[/url].

17", but not sure how small Saracen size up?
This [url=www.commencal-store.co.uk/PBSCProduct.asp?ItmID=12501681]Commencal[/url] seems to fit the bill too.
I'm 5ft 5 so has to be 15" or smaller
Consider 2nd hand? I'm selling my 2011 small nukeproof mega frame (the original version that's good for 150mm-170mm travel forks). Great condition & comes with Fox RP23 PUSH tuned shock. I'm 5'4" - perfect size with 50mm stem. £450 posted. Can do pics if you are interested.
Cheers.

Is a 650b mega a bad idea.. 26" in 650b frame?
@ cloudnine...sorry didn't realize I had to start my own thread to express interest in an item for sale.
I'm the same height as you are and I'm riding a 17" Ariel. I think 15" would feel very short.
Standard DMR Bolt? Very short standover, but still has a decently long tt.
Edit.....link to Upgrade bikes (DMR distributor, and lovely guys) an excellent deal on a basically brand new frame with shock reduced to £499. Has a paint chip on the headtube....

I have a large intense tracer 2 which im about to sell. I have the receipt to show he bearings were replaced recently and the CCDB air shock was also serviced. The colour was a custom red colour too - very pimp and rare. Looking for 800! Let me know if your interested.
I can sell you my Mega TR. Small frame alone or with 120/150 dual position Sektors, possibly as whole bike.
Frame & fork are 5 rides old & taped so immaculate, rest of kit well used but working fine.
