The "do-it-all" trail bike - options and opinions?

There are a lot of good options in this range. The newer XC “down country” bikes in the lower ~half of this range are very capable. Eg the Epic Evo or Trek Top Fuel.

But they don’t quite hit the top end of the 100-130mm travel range. For that you need something like the YT Izzo, Stumpjumper or Fuel.
