Just taking a poll to work out some geometry and size issues..

Whats the best hardtail frame that you have ever ridden?
-What size? Sloping top tube?
- Frame material?
- Your height? Your inseam?
- Any special features of the frame?
- Front suspension? Rigid fork?

With the proper stimulation, you won't even need a seatpost. Imagine
