I'd been after an Orange R8 for a bit - then one came my way. Quite similar I guess - 853 and 120mm travel - bloomin love it.
I'd be tempted by a Pace as well - looks ace
Been riding this over winter and it's ace fun. The short rear end makes lifting the front easy and it's just that bit more flickable compared to my 29ers.
Changed a few bits as the stem was a bit short and the carbon bars a bargain. I've a Fox dropper, that's a little longer to fit when I get chance. The cheap Cube XC bike I picked up has pretty much full 12sp XT so I might pinch a few bits to upgrade this one.
