Just nominate him.....name, occupation etc and a short motivation on why he'd benefit. Also bike size and riding terrain is helpful. Any ideas on getting it to CT from JHB?

We should start something like this in Cape Town for the Cape Flats & Township youths.

To get some more bikes ready for donation, I need the following parts if you have some lying around:

• MTB forks
  
• Headsets (1-inch and 1 1/8 inch threadless)
  
• Shimano Octalink crank bolts
  
• 27.2mm seatposts
  
• Any v-brakes and any disc brake parts (calipers, rotors, sets)
  
• MTB wheel sets
  
• QR skewers
  
• Seat post clamps
  
• MTB handlebars
  

 

 

Thanks!

Yesterday I donated this girls Avalanche MTB to my neighbour's domestic worker for her daughter. She will use it to ride to school and this will save her from a very long daily walk.

 

Pics of her and the bike to follow.

Too bad you don't have a "branch" in PE, got quite a bit of spares I don't know what to do with. All kinds of odds and ends.
