Hardtail frame

Anyone got either a Yeti ARC or a Tomac Cortez? If so, what do you think?
I am kinda half thinking of changing my Orange e6 next year and so looking for a new hardtail frame to replace it. The Orange has done really well, but starting to get a little beaten up now (although still looking good with its brushed ally! lol) Yes, i know the two frames above are kinda back in the day, but that kinda sums me up i guess lol. Am open to other options upto around the £700 mark.
Thanks in advance.

No idea on those two. On that budget you could also consider an On One 456 carbon?0

If it were my money it would be the Yeti Arc without a doubt. Top frames and highly rated. In fact (unless I go Ti) it will probably be my next choice after the Marin...0

Stiffee or Handjob - both circa 400-500, both pretty much unchanged in 7 years as they are pretty much perfect.Closet jockey wheel pimp whore.0

Thanks for the replys guys. Looked at the 456, but not my cup of char really, nothing against carbon though. The cove handjob is pretty cool though, although not sure it stacks up against the likes of the ARC? anyone have any thoughts on the Cortez?0

The Arc is an uot-and-out race frame (thats also pretty tough)
Cannot comment on the Cortez.
Would still have the Arc out of anything else mentioned so far.
Also, check out endorfin...0 -
Yeah i have seen them, very nice, wonder what they are like though?0
