I just completed a Lynskey 29er hardtail this morning. I'll have to see how it compares to my FS 26.

I find for tight trails with lots of cornering a hardtail is much more responsive and easier to thrash through them. But like many others have said here, sometimes comfort trumps all. I like the softer ride and am willing to sacrifice some control and speed for it. But that's just me.
