Can anyone ID this frame or Hub?

Hi Everybody,

I've just bought a bike & was wondering if anyone could tell me what the frame or hub is please?

or if not is there anyway to find out the frame by size and geometry?

Frame
The frame was sold to me as a Giant STP1, but it really doesn't look like a Giant STP1.

Images are below, it's a 13inch frame, horizontal drop outs, looks like it's disc only, cable guide on frame runs under left hand side of top tube. It has been re-painted FYI.

It does feel quite nice, so I'm assuming it is actually a proper jump frame and not some complete tat.

The only identifying things that are obvious to me are the way the seat stays run into the top tube & the gusset between the seat stays (apart from the serial number on the bottom)

Hub

Thanks for any help, It's very much appreciated,

    I've seen Scotts with a very similar seat stay bridge to that, but the stays are too thin, the other that springs to mind is a GT Ruckus but not sure the seat stays come forward far enough.

    From the look of it, it's gotta be steel.

    I love the simplicity of it. Looks ace.

    Thanks The rookie, some of the Chucker's definitely look like it, I'll have a look into Scott too.

    Hey Nick Louse, I believe it's steel, but I'll try to confirm tomorrow.
    Here's a pic of the disc mount.

    Cheers WhyteSky, absolutely it's just a good old fashioned straight up jumper :D

    After looking at the GT Ruckus, some Mongoose's, NS & Voodoo's, I think it could be a Voodoo shanti.

    I'll get in touch with Voodoo with the serial number & see what they say.
