bike....i'm going to use it for 4x and all around new england style singletrack and just an all around fun bike. i've been looking at the bottlerocket, the foes 4x and the blur 4x. basically i want a bike i can ride (i'm 6'3) as a trail bike; that is stout and has short travel and a lowish bb and can be set up with 100mm fork.
mongoose ec-x gets my vote.don't get me wrong transitions are great but a little on the heavy side, plus if your racing and riding trails you'll may like the pedaling ability of the goose.

i have a transition bottlerocket and i wouldn't put any fork under 150mm on it but thats just me.
transition double would work for you
the blur 4x looks pretty cool and it would be lite
