Hi all,

I am building a trekking bike up from a gifted Surly frame and am looking for a donor bike to use the parts from to keep costs sensible as I know there must be lots of 26″ bikes sitting unused. 

Will need to be in good shape, have 26″ QR wheels, hydraulic discs and ideally nice finishing kit.

Beggars can’t be choosers and all that but in an ideal world:

– Silver wheels with Hope / XT or similar quality hubs

-27.2mm seatpost / 11/8″ stem (Thomson)

– good brakes XT/Hope

 

Beyond that it doesn’t matter what size the bike is, whether it is hard tail/full sus or rigid. 

I have the gearing, frame, a rear wheel already so those could be damaged / missing.

 

Located in Manchester but can drive to collect within reasonable distance.
