I'm thinking of swapping all the nice bits off the Handjob onto the iO, selling everything else (like the Cove Frame etc) and building/buying a Alfine rear wheel for the iO to make 2 bikes in one

Oh sweet Jesus 😯
cheers everyone theyre all providing me with some good ideas. Some really nice looking bikes out there. Ive got to admit to having a bit of a soft spot for rock lobsters as i used to own one. I think memories of good times on that bike are what made me buy the sanderson. I really like the bars on graemejones' ti on one aswell. what are they?

I'll show you in three weeks..............
Oooo, what forks are they IvanDobski ❓ ❓ 8)
I'll show you in three weeks.............
What you getting now?
They're the pipedream rigid forks, 450mm a-c so slightly longer than the norm for 26er rigids.
I always look at these threads to see if my old Genesis Altitude will pop up. I miss that frame.

Not strictly mine....actually my wife's Ashton Court bike...yep....one bike for one trail, and it's perfect although please excuse the temporary long stem!!!

All great bikes.
Trying [i]really[/i] hard to stick to the same kinda bike here, and not post up anything with drops 😉
'92 Kona:
Now with bigger front tyre, and tomorrow (hopefully), a 180mm f-rotor.

'10 Genesis Altitude. Curiously, I've not ridden this since the 31st of July 2010, but I might ... [i]might[/i] take it out this weekend - I'm very tempted to dump the suspension and just whack in some rigid 29er forks instead, as I'm not keen on suspension ...
[img] 
[/img]
It's not really [i]quite[/i] that freakish, that camera has a peculiarly odd sense of perspective, and it's a rubbish angle for the shot anyway.
Oh and here was my BFe.. kind of like the Trailstar but more stable downhill and not as fun on flatter stuff.. I'd probably buy one again but either in blue or orange, and maybe the 17" version.

My P7 - it's awesome 😀

Right. I was on a break. Going to get my build finished.
Frame and forks are for sale if anyone interested

Colournoise, that Trailstar is awesome.
Thanks.
Built it back in 2000 IIRC with the same frame. fork and wheels as it still runs. Now my second/commuter MTB but still rides sweet and with the old 80mm Bombers on it and a 50mm stem it handles SO well on the twisty stuff (if a little lairy on anything steep up or down).
