On mtb-news.de there is stories of cracking sp-m05 frames from normal use.
I would be cautious with that one.
A shame that the cf-052 is discontinued. A boost version would be awesome.

Damn. I saw one guy on here in an old thread say the sp-m05 lasted him a long time but I have no clue how big he was or how hard he rides.

I've been looking at the diycarbon XCR29 but I don't like all of the geo. I'm wondering if there's something a bit more modern. I'd like a HTA 66-68 at 100-120mm fork, STA 73 or steeper, reach around 450-470 depending on angles. Chainstay 430-435 or so. I'd like to build a fast carbon hardtail to ride local xc trails and races, some gravel or bikepacking. I've thought of going steel for a similar price but it would be fun to have this bike be light
