Guys I'm on the look out for a hardtail 29er frame, I would like something light that I can run either geared or when the mood takes me single speed! Have considered the on one lurcher as it has swappable drop outs but don't really like the look of the frame! Can anyone point me in the direction of anything else similar as can't find too much available with my limited knowledge.
Cheers for any help

In typical 'suggest what you've got', get a Scandal 29er V2 with swapouts. Sub 4lb and very versatile with the swapouts. You'll have to go secondhand though.

Salsa El Mariachi here, easily converts from geared to single speed, not to sure about weight, but rides great with rigid forks.

There's quite a few Yeti Big Top 29r frames knocking about at silly prices. Dropouts available for geared QR, 142x12 and SS.

Niner Air 9 carbon would do all the above.
EBB with a gear hanger & also a single speed drop out.

There have been 2011 20" voodoo bokor frames on ebay recently, totally mislisted but legit, one ended tonight [url= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171644686082?_trksid=p2050601.m570.l4454&_trkparms=gh1g%3DI171644686082.N15.S2.M-11899.R12.TR13 ]Listed here[/url] but there seems to be one a week listed by them. I picked one up for a future build and its fine apart from being matt white in colour
