Cube mountain bikes

[LegendRider]

I'm in the market for a carbon hardtail 29er with a full XT group (I don't want SRAM) and decent alloy wheels. And, it must be under $3,000 - closer to $2,500 is better. So far, I'm not finding anything, even when considering lightly used bikes (PinkBike, eBay, Craiglist).

However, this Cube fits the bill nicely:

Does anyone have experience with Cube bikes? Is there anything with this spec that should concern me? Am I overlooking any options with other brands?

Thanks in advance.

Can't speak much to the ATB scene, but I used to own one of the top tier carbon road bikes. Spacing the name at the moment.

It was a nice bike. On par with some of the other top brands(fill in names). I'd have no hesitation due to the name alone.

Guess a possible down side would be the across the pond warranty if need be.

Dang! That's a smoking deal for a nice build.

This one is nice also:

Given the build, you get the frame for free!

Less than a grand. Sure you need carbon?
