Looking for a full suspension, carbon 29er, under 25 lbs or close to it.
Prefer a bike with mostly X7 or XT-ish components or better, preferably not a 3x10.
A touch outside your price range, but what about a 19.5" Trek Fuel 29?. Former owner is 6’1+ and it fits him well. Less than 1 year old, shop mechanic owned.
2014 Trek Fuel 9.7. SLX/XT, Fox 32 RLT. New cables and hydraulic lines all around, new tires, new drivetrain. In the shop for a tune up currently (notice some cables not yet attached). Like new condition.
$3300 shipped CONUS.
more pics available. PM me.

For sure interested, but that’s a bit too small. I’m 6’5", so unless I put a 200mm stem and have 3 feet of seatpost sticking out…
How about a 2013 giant trance x 1 29er XL with X7/9?
How about a 2013 giant trance x 1 29er XL with X7/9?
Isn’t the Trance more like a trail-ish bike than pure XC? I’m moving away from a BMC Speedfox for that very reason, want something a little more nimble.
If you are still looking have a Specialized S-Works Epic XL: would do $2500 Shipped

Frame: Size XL, Bottom Bracket is Enduro XD-15 Ceramic ($250 BB, old SRAM PF 30 I would wear out and have to replace 2x a year, the Enduro BB has lasted me for 3 years, just a simple regrease when needed, any respectable shop can do this. All Suspension Bolts and bearings were replaced at beginning of the year and still in good shape.
Rear shock was serviced in the last year.
Fork is Rock Shox SID XX World Cup with Blackbox carbon crown and steerer, serviced last month.
Bike has been ridden and raced, there are paint chips, scratches and cracks/chips in clear coat, all is cosmetic no structural damage, pics below.

Rear Cassette is SRAM 1099 XX 11-36 (only raced on 1 season, great condition) and will include Shimano XT 11-36 as well that was trained on still has good life. New Rear Shifter installed and new cable, front shifter and cable and housing was replaced beginning of September.
Brakes are SRAM XX have worked flawlessly for me, bled recently pads in good shape, 160 Rotors front and rear. Paint has worn off on levers from packing and shipping,
Wheels are Stans Crest 32 hole, STAN’s ZTR front Hub, American Classic Rear with Alloy free hub Steel Flanges so cassette does not bite into freehub. Hubs are in great working condition, great for light weight race wheels. Rims taped tubeless and valve stems will be included, tubes are installed currently.
