Yeti AS-X, a frame like this is not that easy to hack... but of course, much will depend on how abusive a rider is to his bike.
May I add, the frame is just way too expensive for trashing purposes.

I want to shift to full suspension and I kinda like the yeti.... I'm a 295 pound rider using a 05 bullit. So far it's holding up from all of the trail abuse that it has received from me. I think that yeti as-x can support a rider of your size because the frame is as burly as the bullit's. All you need is a heavier spring and a bombproof fork.
