Hi
I know it's a long shot, but I'm looking for a cheap / free mountain bike, to take 26 inch wheels, with a frame to suit a 6 foot guy. It doesnt have to be complete, frame fork and cranks are all I need really, though if it is complete it's a bonus! I can pick up within 25k's of the sydney CBD! I can be contacted at kjparker @ iinet . net . au Thanks again! Keith |

I only ever used Sydney North ReUseIt in the past to get rid of things prior to a house move, but I was put off by the cheap-arse don't want to spend money on anything freeloaders putting in orders for just about everything. |
