divernick Posted September 21, 2011 Share To raise money for charities and to fund some of the details necessary in this Build-a-Bike initiative, I am going to build up a very special bike and put it up for auction. What kind of bike would you guys like to see built up to be auctioned off?(I was personaly thinking of a nice fixie, single speed or track-type bike) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
