Looking to get a new full Susser and The escarpe has caught my eye with a good spec for the cash and decent reviews has anyone ridden one, what other bikes should I be looking at in the 140-150 travel range.

If you are a medium or small then the 2015 stumpjumper Evo 29 can be had for that much

Not seen or ridden one, but a 650b version would be on my shopping list. Geometry suits me, good spec for the money. Should get good support from CRC with any issues.

All good bikes above, if anything it's getting harder to find a bad bike these days....you can now pretty much just set your budget and throw a dart at the selection of bikes....pretty much guaranteed it will be good, specs vary obviously between direct sale and LBS bought bikes but frames, geometry etc (the important stuff) will be good regardless.
Great days.

I've got the vitus escarpe, just bought it as frame only deal. I quite like it, medium feels a good size for me at 5'8"
