Trek Remedy
Riders on 2010s Trek enduro geometry. For current long-travel, look at Slash.
The older enduro/all-mountain Trek before Slash fully took that brief. Steeper and shorter-reach than a modern Slash, depending on year.

Riders who want Santa Cruz trail manners with less travel than Hightower.
Shorter-travel 29er Santa Cruz. Pedals toward downcountry, still a trail bike, quicker than Hightower.
Trail riders who want one Giant for climbs and descents.
Trail 29er with Maestro suspension. Playful for a Giant, still a trail bike rather than an XC Anthem or a Reign enduro.
