not quite sure what you mean equivalent yeti to jeffsy? do you mean the jeffsy cf pro?
Having a 2 29er bikes I would thoroughly recommend them, and wouldn't switch to a lower wheel unless it was a 27.5 plus tyre. The type of riding I do is XC and trail oriented and I have a bike for each.
I was looking at the Jeffsy Comp 1 which is in your budget as my trail bike, but I managed to find a Canyon Spectral AL 9.9 EX at a bargain price with Fox suspension. I was blown away by how well the Canyon builds confidence bombing down the trails, and it climbs really well!! Any more than 140mm travel and you will start to struggle and all day rides IMO.
I would go for either a YT or a Canyon and would possibly look at second options to get more for your money.

I sent I yeti a email and they said the jeffsy is sold out and won't be getting it back in stock
I think you're getting confused between Yeti and YT?
Yeti are another bike brand.
Just seen this today bit over my budiet but it it worth it?

That would make sense, actual Yeti's will give you sticker shock 
I'm eyeing up that YT Capra... that is one sexy bike
im near sure there is no dealers, you can only buy direct from yt. im sure one of the other lads will be able to tell you for sure
I ride a Trance X0 and it's absolutely incredible. Every one of my friends that have taken it for a ride are just blown away by how snappy it feels and allows you to throw yourself into corners.
Not sure I'd recommend a 29'er unless you like to ride smooth and steady.
no that isn't my style i love to go as fast as i can usually to fast for my skill level which normal ends up with me in a ditch lol.
i think i have changed my mind 3 times today lol
im now looking at this strive and saving a few beer tokenshttps://www.canyon.com/en-gb/bikes/bike-detail.html?b=3816&show-pps-recommendation=1
you're probably right... I wonder if they deliver to Cyprus
They are direct only.
Sure there a few guys out here with one. IIRC they brought it back from the UK.
thanks for the input lads i ended up going for this canyon strive in jet grey https://www.canyon.com/en-gb/mtb/strive/2016/strive-al-6-0-race.html
really liked the yt capra and jeffsy but unfortunately they had not got my size in stock and wouldn't be getting the jeffsy back in ever again. so my options was to wait for the capra coming back in or else get the canyon or the whyte t130s in the end the canyon won, fingers crossed it gets shipped to me within the next few days so that i can get back out riding

Nice choice! I love my Canyon(s) - amazing bikes for the money
Yeah Lewie (one of the guys I used to work with) has one... might have a chat with him about it.
I take it you have ordered new from cayon? If so how long did you have to wait until your new bike arrived?

I got 2 that were off the shelf and they came in a week or less. Others I preordered and they took longer, but I knew that.
