Is there any bike charities out there that take your old bits if you can't be bothered with the hassle off selling them for the few quid you'll get for it?
these guys are in newcastle

cheers guys,anything in the south?
There's one in Exeter. Ride on I think? Amedias of here is part of it.
About to do the same in brighton , quite a few charity bike places here I believe .
Brighton's getting closer to home,I'm in West London
If there are any in the Midlands I too have a pile of stuff that I'd happily hand over.
There's one in Guildford. I gave a a load of old stuff to them last year. They use it to repair donated bikes, but I think they also train disadvantaged youths to give them a focus and, possibly, a trade.
I gave mine to the guys at Brighton uni, they fix up the abandoned bikes and hire them to students.
I put an ad on gumtree offering the stuff and the guy cycled over with a massive rucksack, tipped it all in and zip tied the wheels to the outside. I hope he made it...
If you're in west London then Action Bikes have a regular container to Africe with bikes and bike parts. [url= http://www.actionbikes.co.uk/bikes-for-africa.html ]Bikes for Africa[/url]
I saw them on line but looked like they only took full bikes...
I've taken bits and pieces in several times to the Whitton shop, and they've not refused it.
I'll have to give them a ring..cheers
