Hi hubbers, my father-in-law helped out and we got him a decent bike. He will get it tomorrow and I sure am excited to see his face.

not a top of the range bike, but the drive train etc is in a good condition, there are even Argus stickers still on the bike ;)

Yesterday I built this bike which will be donated this week. I've had the frame and fork for a long time and finally got the rest of the parts needed to bring this beast back to life. I built the rear wheel myself and did all the assembly yesterday outside my garden shed while trying to make sure my 2 young boys didn't play with the sharp and dangerous tools!

I have the following to donate if you can use it:

Scott Aspect 640 frame (medium)

2 x 26" rims with tubeless tyres

1 Rock shock recon (needs service)

Front and rear disk brake hydraulic system without a disc

 

I would like to donate the above to someone that really needs it. Want to pay a good deed forward!

Hi everyone! I'm looking for MTB frames, forks, cranks and RD's please. I have a waiting list of 11 guys who need bikes.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

I've got some of the above if you need. Where are you and how do I get it to you?

Please PM an account no to me. I reckon you could best buy what you need from the hub ads.

Excellent! You are doing a wonderful job. I've also donated a few bikes that I build and the appreciation is priceless! Keep it going!

Thanks guys. I'm really humbled by the generosity of everyone who has donated parts to me. Almost 40 bikes have been given to really deserving people since we started.
