I was looking at the carbon Threshold SL with hydraulic Ultegra and wheels with Notubes rims.

Mars, I'm having the same problem. Looking for a frame as well. The Stigmata is awesome but I'm on a budget after all my MTB expenses this year.

I'm looking at the Norco Threshold too, looks like September for the 2016 models, there's an article on the marathonmtb site but as a new user I can't post the link.

gfeldy: I like the looks of the Turner Cyclosys, but it's way too expensive here... A frame set costs 2.5 times the Trek Crockett...

Thanks mgreg. I just saw it. It looks nice, but I preferred the 2015 version in black/red and with Notubes rims TBH. I guess I'll decide when I see the price of the new models.

Mars, I actually tested the Turner at SeaOtter. I know them very well. It rides very nicely but I'm looking for something light. probably even go Canti bc i have all the parts. Keep an eye out. Cheers
