Looking at a handjob frame with the cable routing on the top tube and no brake bosses. How can i tell what year it it as i want to run 120mm forks?

I believe pre 2006 only good for 100mm

cheers

2005... Same as mine... Fits a 100mm fork perfectly... And yeah, 100mm was the max for this years frame.

Teeto, isn't yours a 2007? Looks like it. Good for up to 130mm if so, but best at a bit less imho.
Earlier one did have cable routing on top and 100mm max fork iirc

Yes, I have the 2006 and it IS the newer geometry (and 120mm is spot-on, I have a Reba maxle on mine).

Mine also has under top-tube cabling, so sounds like you might want to give that one a miss.
