Any parts you don't need!!! Spare Parts Build

I posted this thread about trying to build a bike from spare parts https://www.bikeforums.net/general-cy...l#post19667048

and this is the "official" wanted ad!


If you have anything you DONT NEED/WONT USE and dont mind sending my way, I'll be happy to cover shipping if you like.

The goal is to build a commuter/gravel bike with a few gears, beyond that the whole thing will be dictated by what you guys have in the parts pile.

So far I need:

EVERYTHING.

Frame
Fork
Wheels
Bars
Brakes
Tires
Seat stuff
Drivetrain


Again, if you have absolutely anything YOU DONT WANT/NEED please drop me a line!

Do you have a local bike co-op? I'd hit it up. Perhaps check out a few thrift stores.

You'll get killed on shipping if you're trying to ship low-end parts to build a bike across the country.

Sadly I think the co-op here tanked. I'm still going to look but id like to build if i can. I know some things will hurt...

I have a ton of spare parts but most are from old Schwinn road bikes so may not do you much good for a gravel bike. Maybe a commuter if you're not worried about weight.
