I've ridden the Cannondale Cujo 1 for seven years, and overall, I like it. This bike suits me well.
The main problems are the rear QR 141 Boost dropouts and the terrible stock rear hub. The Koozer 450 hub is much better. It can also be upgraded with a TB141 axle and T34+T36 caps (HG/xD).
However, I would prefer a 148x12 Boost rear thru-axle. I don't want a new bike, Cujo's components are good. So, I decided to change the frame only.
I already bought the Flyxii FR-701 carbon frame.
Why did I choose it?
1. It's a 29+ frame with plenty of space for my 29x2.6 tires.
2. It is not too expensive, nor too cheap. I bought it at a good discount.
3. It is not too light (for a carbon frame). "Heavy is good, heavy is reliable."
4. The frame allows for 52mm chainline with a fairly large chainring (for MTB). This is due to the specific shape of the right chainstay.
5. The overall geometry is similar to that of the Cujo 1.
And, of course, this frame has 148mm Boost rear axle spacing.
