In the future I intend to put together a custom bike, completely suited to me more or less from bits. The first thing under consideration is the frame which I may buy or build, all decisions are up for discussion. I like the slacker headtube angle, higher handlebars, beefy components etc more than the strictly XC bikes. It's likely to be used as a bit of an all rounder, DH frames are probably a bit too slack and unlikely to be much good when hills arise.
Geometry, material, weight, availability and any other relevant attribute are the topics for consideration. Really I'm just curious to find out what others prefer and why.
