Please

Needs to be suitable for a 120mm fork, decent tyre clearance, 29er

Doesn't need to be the latest and greatest in terms of geometry

What's good that's a few years old that won't be a maintenance nightmare

Banshee Phantom if you can find one. I'm selling my Banshee Prime as a frame but don't think it will work with a 120mm fork, needs a 140mm albeit I can help on that front too :wink:. With my opinions based on the Prime the Banshee suspension action rides very well and I suspect the Phantom would make a great bike.

Camber evo.

I bought a s/h carbon one earlier this year, real happy with it - does everything from XC thru to Enduro-type stuff and even liveable on DH tracks (although I'm not).

Had a lot of fun on the Ghost AMR2955 I had. Upped the fork from 110 to 120 travel which slackened it to 68HA, nice short stays, good tyre clearance, 2:1 shock actuation meant the shock was very underworked, good 4 bar design with optimal main pivot placement (in line with a 32T chainring and slightly forward of the seat tube), nice and steep seat angle etc. Very underrated bikes, and I imagine (if you can find one) you'll pick it up for a song.
