I don't really want the expense or faff of suspension so a non-suspension corrected 29er would be perfect.
As @tilover said, there's no real disadvantage to a suspension-corrected 29er, unless perhaps you want low bars on a XXXXXS frame size? All you're really doing is limiting the choice of nice XC frames that are available to you, as the majority of 29ers will be designed to use suspension, or a rigid fork around 470mm a-c.

Are there any alternatives to the Genesis Fortitude being made at the moment?
I'd like to do some XC racing this year. I'd also like to do a few overnighters so it needs to be a bit of an all-rounder. I don't really want the expense or faff of suspension so a non-suspension corrected 29er would be perfect.
