Freecycle build = LCEF donation

Both bikes are now finished...pictures soon! Thanks to all that have played a part :)

So we all like building bikes, we all have too many parts lying around and the LCEF is a worthy cause and needs cash.

Here's an idea. Post parts that you would be willing to freecycle, we build a bike, and auction it off on here with all profits going to the LCEF. I'm happy to collect parts from Compass Beers and store/build the bike.

No rush, as sourcing a decent frame/forks/wheels for free or dirt cheap may take a while.

What are you looking for apollo? Road, mtb, 700c, 26", gears, SS,

sorry should have mentioned,

I was thinking a circa 56cm steel road frame that could be run as a single speed conversion (700c) with mudguards as a daily ride, so it will appeal to a larger audience.

or a track frame with a drilled fork for a fixed-beater type ride.

1 1/8" not a requirement either, nor is 27.2mm seatpost, whatever materialises...

I'll have a look tomorrow.

Great idea Apollo
I haz riser bars
or sakae custom champion drops

sweet!

Chrome forks if you get a 1" frame..

Definitely got brake levers. Let me know if you're going with drops or risers.

rear zipp 440 if you need it

i have drops and risers suitable, 26mm drops and 25.4 risers and drops

Hmm got pretty much new ambrosio front hub, black 32h?

I have 2 seatposts going spare, one 27.2 and one 27.0. Nothing fancy but happy to donate them if required.

Can also throw in a saddle and possibly geary bits if required.

wicked (to all)

Will be in touch shortly, but I'll probably take the lot :D

Need to find a frame..

Great idea. I have some drop bars and old Deore derailleurs, unfortunately I think I've gone and sold/given away everything else.

I'll probably take the lot :D

..

Rad!

Anyone going to Norths on Tuesday or Wests on Thursday?

I have saddle, post (odd size though) and drops.
Loads of other stuff too... Will have a look when the wanted list gets going.

A list is a good idea Apollo
List which parts you want so far and people can add missing bits

I've got a 22" peugeot equipe frame(no forks) that you'e welcome to. Its little beaten up though.
