contest video entry - https://www.pinkbike.com/video/261369/#cid1286774

It is pretty evident that he is as dedicated a biker as it gets, but is doing all this shredding on a supermarket bike(whats left of it after some gnarly jumps for the video). I know I am not the only person on pinkbike who would like to help this guy out and have some spare parts he could use. So I've started this page to create a spot where we can all discuss the parts we can give, or the mechanical time (building wheels etc) to help out an awesome fellow rider.

To ensure that we aren't sending him every random part we own and hes getting a bunch of 24" front wheels and 27.2 seatposts or something I think we should aim to creating a parts list that will all fit with each other, and presumably the giant glory frame.

Also as shipping to Portugal isnt cheap We will also start a shipping donation fund.
If your interested in donating to help out with shipping costs please send money to the paypal email : "azonicrider22@hotmail.com"
All donations will be posted here along with the amount given (unless you wish to remain anonymous). All funds that remains after shipping will be sent direct to Filipe who im sure will put it to great use either to pay to put it all together or for tools, spare parts, etc etc.

Parts NEEDED:
Frame: NEEDED* (unless he wins the glory which is more then likely)
Fork: Rock Shox Totem 09, jr-t 03
Headset: Pig DH Pro
Fr Wheel: NEEDED
Rr Wheel: , Mavic ex721 laced to XT hub
Crankset: holzfeller
BB: truvativ
Brakes: Avid elixir 7's
Rotors: Hope 8"
Stem: holzfeller
Bar: hussefelt 31.8
Derailleur: X7
Shifter: x7
Chainguide: lg1+
Pedals: dmr magnesium
Tires: 2.5 maxxis highrollers
Seat: Charge spoon
Seat post: Bontrager 31.6

I have some old NS aeriel pedals going spare. They're good pedals, but well used - still better than a supermarket pair!

I've got some spare parts lying around, some are newer than others. I have an entire X7 setup that's been used, but it works; I'd be more than thrilled to post it to him! I also have a couple of used hayes 8" rotors if you don't have a matching set.

have splined truvativ bottom bracket, brand new if any use?

also poly carb 36t shimano bash ring.

and some decent grips in very good cond.

Just a though guys but maybe if this guy had a paypal account we could all just send him £5 or sumthin, lose change to the individual but will probably mount up at his end to a decent amount, then maybe him and his family could get exactly what they want, rather than a load of random parts that may or may not be any good to him.

just a theory.
