Alright monkeys, the holidays are over, but there are still bikeless kids out there. I ended up with some extra parts, and others have some too, so let's put 'em to use on another giveaway bike!

Let the list begin:

Douglas: Frame

Stinkyboy: Bar, cassette, grips, crankset, seat, post, pedals

OG ripper: RS Psylo

Narlus: Trawling through basement to find some candidate parts...

Stevew: Azonic Shorty stem (if he can figure out how to mail it) :p

Shut up and ride...
let me scrounge around. I think I have an old Raleigh M80 rigid cruise bike. it's a threaded head tube, but I have the stem, two rims, and actually, may have a large percentage of it. Could make for a3rd bike. I'll get with you tomorrow on it...

A few flat spots sounds sketchy, but check your PM's for address.

Stinky -- Just pulled them out. The front hub is real sticky (probably needs a rebuild), but the Mavic rim is in good shape. The rear rim is bent, needs to be replaced -- no skewers. You still want to screw with these or wait and see if something better turns up?

I'll gladly send 'em if you want.

I think one fo the e-tailers has Sun XC rims for $10. I could order one and have it shipped to you if you want to switch 'em.

Over there somewhere.
Sorry about not getting the grips out for the first one, found a slight issue with them, I have some tires that I can donate to the build.

I'm in the middle of upgrading my switchblade and epic, I don't know what parts I'm going to end up with. I'll let you know in a few days. For now I think I have a weyless carbon bar coming off my epic, and a 27.2 seatpost I found in the garage.

If you need a little money for misc. expenses, I can help out.

So, by RM Bike #5, we'll be giving away custom Ti bikes with XTR and King builds?

:D

Thanks Reactor for all of your help!

You're welcome, Dude. After this it may be a while before I upgrade again. The titus switchblade is getting blue chris king hubs on xm-819 rims, a blue CK headset, raceface next bars, a Fox TALAS XTT, and some specialized BG grips.

The epic is getting the EC-90 handle bar, crossmax enduro disc wheelset, and possibly the minute fork from the titus. I'm also replacing the deore hyros with Juicy 7s, and the OEM stem with a raceface deus xc stem. So I might give you the deore disc brakes too, and old stem too. I'm holding onto the Float 80 fork, for a possible single speed project.


EDIT: I might have a Judy XC fork for you though.

Nice price, but I'm not a wheel builder and would prefer not to have to pay for a build.

Cool. I'll build 'em, but I'm swamped with work right now. It will take at least a week 'fore I can get them to you.

If you can wait that long, I'll order the rims tonight.

That's always the hard part.:)

I just put my CK headset on, it looks sharp!.

I have half of two headsets you can have if you need them. I have a black cane creek s-2 (Top or bottom only one good bearing), and a silver raceface deus xc real seal top. If anyone else has some parts we could make a whole headset.

So, you prolly have too much stack for that Minute now, so I suppose I could take it off your hands since you don't want it anymore...
