Orange patriot

Hello folks looking for a bit of wisdom from you more experienced mountain bikers.I,ve recently returned to cycling after a number of years in the wilderness , nothing special just for fitness, a bit on and off road.Having acquired a decent spec road bike I have recently bought an orange patriot from a friend at work and having ridden it a number of times have realised that a)this is much too much of bike for me and b) I much prefer a more simple hard tail setup.I,m told the patriot is of a decent spec , hope brakes , full fox suspension ,deore group set etc and this is where my problem starts.Should I advertise the bike as a whole , sell it off as separate parts or transfer as many parts to a new frame or advertise for a swap.The bike is in full working order and it seems a shame to break it up.If i do decide to sell it i would need to find out year and i,m led to believe orange don,t keep details of individual bikes after a certain age.Anybody with any suggestions ?
