Finally got one. Got the Scott Scale 29er.
It just felt right which is a big deal. Took it out right away and is just great. Fast, handles well (which was why I was drawn to the Scott vs other more $$$ bikes). This one isnt as well specced as I'd had liked, would have rather had xt all around and a reba or fox fork... But I'm loving the feel of the coil spring fork, and so long as parts are working well, no need to replace.
Feels about the same as my old bike which was made with Easton ultralight AL tubing weight-wise. Need to put on a scale to be sure. Think my old one was 7005 where this one is hydrofirmed 6061 Al-based.
Just some iPhone pics...
