I'd pay Mike@DB to make me a Titanium Alpine (or maybe to put it into production myself if I had THAT much).

I'd also have a full suss trail bike (Turner 5 spot?) but most importantly I'd move somewhere like this;

Where is that picture taken from? I want to go there so much it hurts!

If money was no object, I'd buy each and every one of you all, the bike of your dreams.

Well it is Christmas innit

Then I'd pay for a STW meet in Moab.

Except Ton.

Probably something like:
Ibis Mojo SL (with lopes link), though having less aluminium inserts than the standard mojo would get me worried. Maybe swap the shock for a PUSHed Fox RP23 High Volume
CK Aheadset
Salsa seat QR
A RS RVL Team (Blackbox) Air U-turn, 120-150mm and a Fox 36 Van RC2 FIT for alpine playing
Easton EC90 seatpost and a KS i950R seatpost
Specialized Rival Saddle or a Gobi if it were comfortable
CK Hollowtech BB (plus the grease tool)
Shimano XTR cranks/rings, shifters, F/R mechs, chain, casette
Those £676 Edge Carbon rims
CK Hubs or DT 190s (or 240s) if CKs can't be adapted for a 10mm rear DT RWS thru-bolt?
Some kind of tubeless kit
A set of pretty much every vaguely applicable tyre from every manufacturer
Magura Marta SL 210mm F/R and maybe a set of Avid Codes for Alps
Bontrager Race X Lite 17deg stem
Easton Monkeylite DH 711mm Carbon bar
ODI Rogue Grips
Shimano XTR SPD pedals

I had my money no object bike;
Brooklyn Machine Works Racelink, Avalanche Racing forks with custom carbon guards, Magura Gustavs, King Steelset, Thomson, LOTS of titanium, probably £6k ish.....

..........then, bang, the bottom fell out of me & my wifes world, I sold the Brooklyn without having ridden it-but not because of financial reasons. A very sad moment packing into its new owners flight case to goto Norway.

Im now back on my old Chameleon hackbike (shortly to be replaced by a Bluepig).

No more expensive bikes-there are other priorities in life.
