Bike donation

[boludo]

I'd assume most of you out there have misc parts lying around. So as I was looking at my 18" KHS FXT pro frame hanging in my garage and having no use for it or no buyers, I thought of a great idea.

How about we start some type of donation build. I'll throw in the frame. It has an XT BB installed and seatpost.

So I'm sure somebody out there knows of somebody that could really use a pick me up. And how about a free bike to do the trick. Not sure how we can do this, but if all the parts can be donated an LBS can then assemble the bike. If an LBS wants to participate.

The only thing I havnt come up with is how to choose the "winner". I assume we could start a new thread and everyone that knows a "someone in a rut" could tell about that person. Then we all could pick our favorite and give the bike to the winner.

Any thoughts? It'll be like an Opra give away, only cool and without irritating people.
