Coming up to wanting to upgrade my enduro bike. Anyone have any experience with the Santa Cruz nomad or orange alpine? Riding is mainly for rough terrain, that can put up with Scottish terrain and winter.

Demo of the new nomad, didn't feel good until it got going then it was awesome! Not a bike for the slouch or the passenger.
As for life I think the sc has got it right in some ways, the bearing seals are good, just pulled the top link apart on my blur ltc after 3 + years and it still had good clean grease in it. The moved lower pivot should help but it also has grease ports. Not much else to go wrong.
