The vengeance is probably a touch heavier, but gets a better fork and has discs. Will be the better performer off road.0

Thanks supersonic. Didnt realise the fork was an improvement on the xct.
I have an old rock shox dart 2 fork kicking about. Is this a better fork than the XCM v30 -
Some of the xcm V3s have a hydraulic rebound damper which helps a fair bit.0

looks like the carrera wins. Many thanks for the advice.0
