I am in the market for a new frame and thinking about the Ibis Mojo HD - before I settle on this....what would you buy and why?

I am looking for a 'do it all' bike and although I'll probably get shot down for using the term 'All Mountain', that gives you an idea of the type of frame I'm after.

140/150/160mm rear travel & up to 160mm forks.

Is there anything new on the market that I should be considering?

Money no object....... Helius AM.

Because my Helius CC is superb and a "bigger" version would be something special.

Depends on your budget. I got a YT Wicked recently and for the money, it's absolutely amazing.

I would be tempted to get a heckler, and spend all the money you saved on a CCDB, some fox 36's, an amazing wheel set and a bling group set.

Stumpjumper Evo and swap the parts to ones you prefer.

And Knolly make top notch bikes. My mates Endorphin gets nothing but praise.
