Giant Trance go? There's one with stp specs, all 2007 parts (frame too) it's built up for 4x but how hard can it go, consistently? Just to go for the odd xc ride, bit of DH, 4x,4x,4x and a tad of freeride... nothing bigger than 4' though...

Much farther than I thought one could. Check this thread on RM:

I saw some guys racing DS and 4x on them this past summer.

I think a Gaint Reign would be more suited to what you want. It all really depends on the components that it has on it, if you could be more specific then we could give you a better answer. Another issuse that you might have is that it has a fairly high standover depending on the size.

Fourcross, think slightly like dual slalom except... quadruple slalom. ;)
