I'm in the market for a new bike. I'm after a 100-110mm travel Carbon full suss. I currently have a hardtail 9er and have just sold my Ibis Mojo as I'm not really getting the use out of it, I prefer the all out speed of a 9er but it would be nice to have a bit more comfort on the rough bits (South Downs mostly). Have looked at various, Cube AMS100 being the one I'm leaning towards. Any feedback or suggestions gratefully recieved.

Been running this to compliment my Blur Lt, racing XC and general trail riding on it. More capable than I expected and a great bike to ride, comes in full Carbon but not in that yellow 🙂 Also runs a 120mm fork for a slightly more relaxed run.
Edit - Rocky Mountain Element

My very short list is:

Salsa Spearfish Carbon
Yeti ASR-C (the new one)

Both fill that magic space of light weight but with decent fun geo.
