What to get depends how much money you want to spend and how aggressive you like to get when descending.
A 2020 or 2021 Norco Optic is a great trail bike with great geometry. If you want to get to do more aggressive descending, at the cost of weight, get a 2020 or 2021 Norco Sight. If you got the money, get yourself a carbon frame. The weight reduction noticeably makes the handling more nimble. If you want something even lighter get yourself an aftermarket set of carbon wheels. The handling is amazing.
