Building AM / Enduro Trek Session 9/8/ Viable? Please thoughts.

Ok, I am in love with how the Session frames look.

I've been reading up post on here about those here before I bought a Remedy a few days ago - but the lad decided he didn't want to sell anymore. So I thought - F*** it, i'll do what I want.

I want something capable of nice jumps, fast DH but also something that will allow me to do the occasional climb or flat surface with friends on a weekend ride. I don't mind being on a disadvantage in those conditions, and if i'll get super tired - pushing the bike up. It would probably be the same story with an XC for me - uphill tires me no matter what.

So I'd like to keep it light; use carbon where possible. i was also thinking a single crown fork...
I know it sounds ridiculous and I would be better off with Specialized Enduro (as there is one beauty in L on Ebay for £1600 which is tempting).

Money is not really an issue, however I don't like spending money stupidly... So I was thinking of picking up a built 88 or 9.9 frame and use the components I have + changing a few things to make it bit more Enduro capable.

What do you guys think?
