Basically I'm looking at getting a new/newish 150/160mm travel bike to replace the downhill bike as it just doesnt get used enough.

Only problem is I'm 6 foot 6 and am finding it impossible to demo any xl bikes for fit as no shops keep them in stock for me to sit on to see if they and no hire/demo shops have xl models to try.
Oh yeah its also going to be 650b as i'm a massive trendwhore(and quite large so i probably wont even notice)
bikes im pretty interested in
The XL norco range killer bee is pretty much exactly what i want but according to evens they arn't bringing any in for 2014 so **** them!(anyone got a 2013 one they'd sell me perchance)
The xl kona process 153 which is HUGE and i really like the look of but is quite pricy for the spec even at mates rates from my local kona dealer.
both my current bikes (xc 29er hard tail and dh bike) have a 420mm toptubes and i run them with a 50mm stem.

basically long story short. finding it hard to find a decent size AM bike and has anyone ridden the new kona process 153?
