Anything and everything needed - building a bike for my son

[Doomanic]

After insisting he wanted a new BMX for his birthday my lad has been bitten by the MTBing bug after a couple of trips to the Forest of Dean. :roll:

As I just blew over 200 quid on said BMX money is tight but I'd like to build him a half decent spec bike rather than buy a budget piece of Hellfrauds shite which will probably put him off. To this end, I'm looking for everything, starting with a 13"ish frame.

Can offer a 15" full suspension Mongoose frame (£40 plus post) or complete bike minus wheels for around £ 120-140 plus post...

Quick pic..

Thanks, but 15" is too big. He's tried a 13" Trek 3700 and it was only just small enough.

 

[Sithlord]

Ok no problem.. hope you find something nice

 

[Doomanic]

Thanks.

I've got a few bits and pieces - several saddles, some grips, various bolts etc,
What do you need?

 

[Doomanic]

To be honest, I'm not entirely sure what I need until I get a frame, although I will need stuff like that eventually.

I really want to get frame and forks suited first.
