Young kid Bmx in two pieces :-(

Hi,

 

I work at a bmx/jump track in Pretoria. This is actually a life center for kids in the area where they can come an ?play? in a safe environment that keeps them out of the streets.

 

One of the kids ?jumping? there (Kealin) has a old run down bmx, he is 13years old and I believe has a future in jumping/freestyle as he has definitely got the racing legs; and fearlessness for jumping...

 

Yesterday his bmx broke in two and we are searching for sponsorships to raise money to buy this kid a proper bike.

 

If somebody is interested in contributing to this cause feel free to contact me. Attached is a few pics of him in action and also destroyed with his machine in two pieces. Also check out our Facebook group HERE.

 

Regards

I will also chip in for a helmet, send bank details. Must be for helmet though, his talent means jack if he lands on his pip from that height!!!

Im sure I've got spare helmets at home. I've also got a few BMX's lying around. I'll check them out tonight and I'll get back to you. They might not be any better than what he had...but better than nothing.

Was thinking something like a mongoose fireball or GT chucker so prob in the region of R5000-R6000. But depending on interest maybe something less "expensive" or more for that matter.
