Re: NEEDED DESPERATE HELP FOR CHILDRENS BMX PROGRAM
Ladies and Gentleman. The Midwest bmx donation program has gotten some more oppertunitys this year to show off our work and get more BMX exposer out in the public's eyes. As you keep reading we had a bad last year building bikes, so we are getting out more to promote. Problem is that we need some stuff and the program is strapped for funds. We could use a new banner to hang out, stuff for flyers, More professional looking shirts, exc. If you would like to help us grow, monatary donations are very much needed. you can paypal us at orangesvtfocus03@aol.com and type in "program" YOU CAN NOT USE ANY WORDING OF DONATION IN PAYPAL or send us a check or money order. Doing this now will help make huge funds are the next few shows we do, and the MIDWEST BMX FEST. Any questions please send us a PM...
Sorry for my spelling, Im tired as all heck!!! LOL
Thank you

Re: NEEDED DESPERATE HELP FOR CHILDRENS BMX PROGRAM
Im sorry I have neglectled to post here for quite some time.. We have had a slow year, and i was hoping to have more pictures to post of kids recieving bikes, but no body ever gave me any.. The program is doing some cool stuff. We got invited to do a BIG BOYZ BIG TOYZ show at a expo center and it will be a huge event. it is held by 2 famous radio disk jockies and we are building a bike for the show, then to raffle it off there. The proceeds will go right to the program.... Then I have been working on the MIDWEST BMX FEST. Something else to make money for the program since times are tough.. I got alot of misc parts, but as usual WE ARE SHORT, CRANKS, HEADSETS, BB'S, 1/2 PEDALS, RACE FRAMES!!!!!!
Sunday I got this donated by a very cool guy who brought it from a few hours away...
SPECIALIZED HEMI MINI AND IN SUPER CONDITION
Not only did he drop this off, he also dropped off 2 or 3 new pairs of fly pants, 3 pairs of matching gloves and shirts... Very killer donation as for we NEVER get gear donated!!!!!!!
On a side note, we also got a donation of $100 from another guy who is a very good program supporter. We used this money for stamps, envolopes, copys, misc to send fest stuff out and donation letters, so hopefully that $100 turns into 10x the amount.....
The Mini above has also already found a home to a lucky girl.. more on that later...
SO SINCE WE ARE DOING OTHER STUFF AND NOT BUILDING, COLLECT YOUR OLD PARTS AND SEND THEM HERE TO THE PROGRAM. ITS TIME TO COLLECT. I GOT LIKE 20 BIKES IN QUE AWAITING PARTS AND MONEY TO FINISH...
WE CAN ALSO USE DONATIONS FOR THE MIDWEST FEST RAFFLE TABLE, SMALL UNUSED PARTS THAT WILL ALSO HELP US RAISE SOME $$$$$.
THANKS GUYS,,

Re: NEEDED DESPERATE HELP FOR CHILDRENS BMX PROGRAM
Another happy client!!
This bike came to me in wonderful shape. I cant leave well enough alone and cant give a bike that was someone else's so i changed it up some. I added a checkered UNI seat, AME grips. RED/Chrome link chain, Chopsaw use sproket, red brake cable from porkchopbmx.com and added new SE sealed cassette wheels with new tioga tires on them to change it up. "stock parts to be used on another project"

Re: NEEDED DESPERATE HELP FOR CHILDRENS BMX PROGRAM
So the SE-cret AGENT made it 1500 miles away. Here is a email I got. Pretty cool
Nick, I got the bike last thurs morning, and last night (wed.)I finally worked a shift on the same day as Scott and was able to give it to him. The guy is unbelieveably stoked!! I didn't have my phone with me (not allowed at work) to get pics but we planned a ride for weekend after next, my grandson and I with him and his kids (weather permitting) and I'll be sure to take a camera along and get some good pics.
Thanks again so much! This really is a huge deal for him. He's positive that it's probably the coolest bike ever built. :-)

Re: NEEDED DESPERATE HELP FOR CHILDRENS BMX PROGRAM
Anyone have any ideas on how to sell raffle tickets for the warbird? LOL.... ultra slow sales. I got a ton of projects to finish, and wanted to have some funds to finish another bike for a high profile show at the end of the month that could be huge for us... I need about $300 to do just some of the things we really need to do in the next month or 2, not including the midwest fest.. Things around the program are very slow and im just building personal randoms right now me and my bro have had laying around, we need to get rocking here. If it stays this slow. I may just shut it down. Who knows.. Tough times for all right now..

Re: NEEDED DESPERATE HELP FOR CHILDRENS BMX PROGRAM
We are still in VERY BAD NEED OF 1 1/8 threadless headsets. brake cable ends so when you cut cables you can put ends on. seats, seat posts under the size of 27.2 got a ton of those. Freewheels. all sorts of bottom brackets. Running low on tires of race and freestyle... CRANKS AND WHEEL SETS OR HUB SETS NEEDED DESPERATLY... We have a bunch of brake cables, right levers, but no freestyle matching pairs. alot of used 9/16 pedals. bars we have.. threadless race forks are almost gone.. We have a crap ton of freestyle bikes, but very little race frames.. Its weird how stuff stacks and stuff dont come. i can build 20 bikes 50% completes....
We also have a expert here we could use bars and a wheel set for, crank arms also. i have a mini frame and fork it needs the works. I even have a JR crusier that might be coming are way frame only thats super high end we could use everything for also.... V BRAKE SETS NEEDED ALSO.... ![]()

Re: NEEDED DESPERATE HELP FOR CHILDRENS BMX PROGRAM
So the other day from someone unknown I recieved this Fatboy and 2 sets of forks and a box of hoops. Thank you to whoever sent it! I got some wild plans for this one ![]()


A friend also donated this brand new Standard byke CO JR crusier. The forks are new but for a mini so we cant use them, but a new bottom bracket and headset works
NOW TO FIND NEW JR CRUSIER PARTS... HARD TO FIND! EXPENSIVE!


I HAVE A BUNCH OF BIKES IN QUE 1/2 BUILT, MISSING PARTS, NEEDING REFINISHED. IF YOU HAVE A FEW EXTRA BUCKS LAYING IN PAYPAL YOU WOULD LIKE TO DONATE. YOU CAN PAYPAL US AT
ORANGESVTFOCUS03@AOL.COM
PAYPAL WILL SHUT US DOWN IF YOU USE ANY WORDS SAYING DONATION OR RAFFLE, SO JUST TYPE IN BMX SO WE KNOW WHAT IT IS FOR... THANK YOU

Re: NEEDED DESPERATE HELP FOR CHILDRENS BMX PROGRAM
The MIDWEST BMX DONATION PROGRAM is going to take a summer break.. Durning this summer break we will still be taking donations of parts for our future builds, and trying to earn $ to refinish the piles of frames in the garage. So if you would like to donate parts or monatary donations to the program, we still need them.. This will give us time to prep for our future builds. We are still in need of GOOD HUBS, OR COMPLETE WHEEL SETS FREESTYLE/RACE, CRANKS, V BRAKES, U BRAKES, HEADSETS, BB'S, AND 27.0 AND SMALLER SEAT POSTSand chains... We will take anything we can get. I also have about 15 frames that need refinishing!
We all need a break to spend time with the familys, work on our houses and just get out and ride, but stay tuned will will keep ya posted!!!
Thanks
Nick

Re: NEEDED DESPERATE HELP FOR CHILDRENS BMX PROGRAM
een a while since i posted here.. Here are some updates!
So I had this Alum Redline proline frame sitting in the garage and a bunch of spare parts. So I found some Redline forks and bars and started sanding. I got them all smoothed and prepped and did a wrinkle black finish which looks super cool, I had a set of the Camo wheels laying around that were donated to my program. I ordered a camo seat from ebay, made some custom decals, and here we go, a unique cool race bike to make a kid very happy. and yep im giving this one away too!!!
A NICE LITE RACE BIKE DONE ON THE CHEAP! of course alot of parts were donated and the new parts came from porkchopbmx!
YO JOE!
