Mainstream mountain bikes tend to target performance in a way that should work for most people in most places, possibly with some adjustments built in to suit specific use cases.

With hardly any stock geometry or kinematics to speak of, the frames are bespoke in the truest sense of the word - but you will have to know what you actually want.
