This is the bike. The forks are locked solid, the wheel bearings are shot, front derailleur is dead, rear is barely functional, I think the brake pads are missing so the pistons are stopping the bike against the disc etc etc the only thing that looks good are the SRAM discs

I saw two M mountain bikes under R10k in the classifieds. A Scott and another one I can't recall (was late last night).

If you go the new route, maybe best to get something a bit better than a makro bike as that will fall apart from the mileage. Maybe a 1x commuter bike will be more suited to his distances - less things to break/maintain. Not sure if Rook's are still available?

I'm happy to contribute R1000 towards a better bike. DM me with bank details once you've decided.

That is very kind. 

@RobertWhiteheadis currently seeing what parts he has to make a complete bike so maybe you could contribute to him directly to compensate him for his time and parts.
