My Rockhopper to which I've added a few tarty bits. The frame (17"), forks (Reba SL) and wheels will be for sale in the next month or so once my Ragley frame arrives. If anyone wants to register their interest in advance, send me a pm.

Sweet setup you got there.

I fancied something with a bit more travel that can take more of a thrashing so I pre-ordered an MmmBop frame and have got some Vanillas and Hope / Mavic wheels ready to put on it.0

I've got a 2009 Rockhopper Pro and am considering treating myself to a Thompson seatpost too.
Has the layback one altered your position and reach much from the standard Rockhopper seatpost?
Cheers,

I only put that post on yesterday so I haven't tried it yet. Shouldn't make any difference to the riding position though as the layback post is only the same as having an offset clamp on a normal post (the Thomson clamp has to be in line with the post because of its two-bolt design).
If you're after a post like that, mine will be for sale when I get my Ragley frame in October because this one won't fit and I'd rather get the right diameter than use a shim.0 -
Ok cheers.
Let me know how it rides & remind me when it comes up for sale
