*** Official "Giving is Good" parts donation threa

[yeshoney]

OK, I think we have a few who have stepped up to the plate to donate some items, let's make it official! Gonna make a list of parts and you can reply to the thread as to what you want to donate. The only thing I ask is that if you agree to do it that you follow thru. Bikes without parts won't work too good. Also, i had an idea about donating parts for two bikes - one boys bike and one girls bike.

Low_Life will need to supply us with the address and hopefully he can inventory the stuff as it arrives.

Good Question DD!

I was gonna donate my Roadmaster Girls frame,tank,fork and chainguard. i guess if we donate enough parts they can always improvise. They seem to have access to parts. Do you think if we decide on a frame Canti, BMX, 10 speed, or ??? and post a pic it will help with figuring out what parts to donate? I think so but PM me if you want to discuss. As I write this we got 15 looks at this post and only DD so far? Heck with 450 registered users we could easily donate enough parts to make a dozen sweet rides for these kids ~ remember they are doing the work so they do have something invested in it themselves and we RRBF get to do a virtual design here. How coool is that (three o's in cool!)?

I've got some 26" forks and I think there's some extra cruiser handlebars around.

I'll dig through my pile o' parts this weekend to see what I've got.
