I'm currently selling my On One Codeine as I've got myself a new Scott Genius LT+. As a different option I'm considering stripping it of all the parts and buying a decent trail hard tail frame (ragley blue pig, dmr trailstar, ns eccentric etc) and transferring the parts to that.

What sort of thing do I need to be looking for? I'm thinking seatpost diameter (I have a stealth reverb 31.6mm) and stealth routing ability, rear axle size (142 x 12). I'm not very sure on BBs and Headsets etc so any guidance on that and how to make sure the 160mm travel Yari fits ok would be much appreciated. And anything else I may be forgetting.

Thanks.

I can't help with what size items you have and what those frames need as I know nothing about them but the items I know you'll need to confirm are:
-bottom bracket width (sometimes diameter too)
-head tube diameter and length
-fork length (crown to axle)
-seat post diameter
-disk brakes mounts holes config

Disclaimer.. I may be forgetting something
