That Kona above costs less than my Shiv's back wheel. So yeah, I think MTBs are cheap. I'm not looking at custom or downhill pro team bikes though am I?
The Bird Zero AM was £2,200 for good but by no means pro kit, it's got a Deore groupset and a lot of the parts are Bird branded stuff. The fork is good, as are the tyres.
Frame only for the AM is £400.
Dammit-
That's like half the price of the Tripster frame. I'd spend a bit more on decent forks and scrimp on the groupset components because based on previous experience I tend to smash those into trees and throw them into wheels (or cars).
Wheels, I dunno. Do I want another dynamo wheel? I only just got the last one rolling. Getting wheels built up is a ballache with parts hard to get, etc.

The AM is 27.5. They don't seem to have any of the 29ers in stock.
hippy
