I was thinking I would donate it to someone who would rebuild it.stinkyboy said:How long will it take you to rebuild it?
It's taken me almost 10 years now, and I haven't rebuilt it.
BTW, stinky, please PM me if you need anything that I PM'd you about. I'll cover shipping wherever it has to go but I don't read a lot of RM threads so I might miss it if you just post a place to ship to.
Hopefully, I won't have to. I know there's a monkey out there with an entry level (or better) fork they can live without.SkaredShtles said:I was thinking I would donate it to someone who would rebuild it.

I think Wumpus may have one to rebuild. I am going to help him do it.
Yep, got a judy race that needs an oil change. Loco is going to help me this weekend, and we should have it on the way by Monday.stinkyboy said:

Glad you got them
I didn't have much to offer, when I made the switch to 29"ers I basically unloaded 10 years of 26" parst I had acquired -so presently my parts stockpile is low,

I've got a manitou black fork but it would need a much softer spring for a kid.
It's also disc only, but I could throw in a pair of hayes hfx 9s if we get a disc wheel set. That said, I've also got some old disc rims lying around if anyone has any hubs. I could build the wheels meself if someone sent me the hubs.
I've also got a medium 02 enduro frame that's been collecting dust but I guess that's too big for the intended recipient.
Let me know if this stuff fills any gaps.

I've got an older set of black hayes disc brakes i'd be willing to donate, along with some 6" rotors. They probably need to be bled though
Definitely down with the brakes! A kid on his first real bike with discs = badazz of the neighborhood! I have some Mavic 321 disc wheels that I don't wanna part with, but will if necessary.
I haven't seen any other parts show up, so please people let's figure out which frame is the best, and will actually be sent.
Here's where we are now:
Loco: 13" frame?
Splat: Small frame, tires?
Kinghami: Trek Y Frame?
Loco/Wumpus: Judy Fork?
Kidwoo: Disc brakes, Manitou Black?
Binary Visions: A bunch of 7 speed stuff?
MunkeeHucker: Grips (Recieved)
SB: Truvativ bar, Truvativ stem, Cane Creek headset
DRB: Still worthless!
Corey: LX cranks (Steve is sending his RF's, so please save these for the next bike)
Steve: RF cranks?
Manci: Wheels (rim brakes)?
Sir Knight: Helmet?

I have a Truvativ ISIS bottom bracket if the RF cranks are splined that I can toss in. Not sure what else I have, i will look tonight.
I think i still have an 02 Trek 4300 frame in the Garage its a 13", a 9 speed LX cassette, deore 9 speed shifters, Some gold specialized handle bars off my enduro,The stem off the Enduro, and the seat. If any of those help hit me up... Ill be home next week.

I will be shipping 13"frame with a rigid fork and an old Judy race next week. I won't have any shifters or a deraileur though. The derailleur is on the cross bike, and the shifters have to be back up. I'll box this weekend to ship on Mon or Tues.
Oh yeah - and handlebars.

I hope. It should.stinkyboy said:
So do you not want the black?stinkyboy said:
In all honesty the judy might be better anyway. My fork is set at 120mm which might be a little much and like I said, I'd still need to get a soft spring.
I've got headsets and drivetrain stuff too if you need. Just make a good list and detail what's missing I guess. I can throw in some other bits with the brakes.
...Bump... and I suspect we should ensure that some RideMonkey Stickers are sent along to properly outfit this bike..
hey stinky1..could you pm me what parts you are in need of so i can go thru the garage and see what i gots
I didn't bother to read through 8 pages, but I am willing to build something and throw in bits and pieces here and there (I work at a shop so I can get my hands on things). Stinkyboy, PM me and let me know if you need help. I'm on break from school starting in 4 weeks, and the break is 3 weeks long so I could throw at least 1 bike together in that time.
As you can tell by the thread, there has been a lot of responses and I am waiting to see what actually shows up, and then post what is here, and what is still needed.
I spoke with Big Brother/Big Sisters, and they said they have 1500 kids, and pinpointing one would be unfair, (I have mixed feeling about that) but they gave me a contact of a foundation that helps single moms and such, so I'll call them today.
RM, do you wanna throw a monkey sticker on the bike, or is there be a liability thang?
