Thanks. This is what I wanted to hear. Just get a bit caught up in all the new stuff.
I'm 6'6" so bigger definitely is better.

All day, 29er beast bike.
Santacruz hightower frame in XL with 135mm rear travel, 160mm fork, 150mm drop transfer post.
I'm about 6'2 fwiw and this thing rules, even in the twisties.

Definately stay 29" though... I don't care what anyone who has bought in to the 27.5" thing says, they're better at everything a normal mtb'er does. If you're a tricky little jumpy person, maybe something else, but normal xc and faffing about stuff, for anyone taller than about 5'7", it's 29 all day.
Boom, flame me if you want, but you know I'm right!
