D4 UEH Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Last night my garage was done over and my mountain bike lifted, If anyone see it or gets offered it in the pub cheap could they let me know, a long shot i know but worth a try. Bike spec: 2013 Transition covert 26 in yellow Rockshox pike forks Stans flow ex wheels Sram X0 brakes and drivetrain Cheers The impreza was also in the garage but luckily remained untouched!
wrightsterrrr Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Sorry to hear about the break in!! Good luck on getting the bike back!
Scooby Pete Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 gutted for you. when we got broken into it was the feeling of violation that was the worst bit. Scum!!!!
Gambit Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 !Removed!. Good luck with tracking it down I know my mates got pinched the Police reckon it would have been stripped down for the parts and put on another frame that would have been stolen months before :( hopefully you will get lucky :)
Gaulson Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Sorry to hear it, I sold my Santa Cruz VP Free to my friend. It was a custom paint job and was one of a kind. A few weeks late it got stolen and never been seen since :( . Hope it's not the same in your case.
hilli182 Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 The !Removed!. I'm surprised ours wasn't broken into the same time then Hope you find it
D4 UEH Posted March 18, 2014 Author Posted March 18, 2014 Yeah apparently a few others have been broke into around skidby, and the police found a !Removed! bike stashed in a bush down the street which they probably exchanged for mine, nice of em!
hilli182 Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Not thought about checking if mines still in garage ha suppose I best do
Ash007ks Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 aldi Home cameras £49.99 and include nightvision. 1
Jay762 Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 shame - great looking bike and as Pete says the feeling of violation is just horrendous
Pommy Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 I'm always surprised by how cheap home camera's can be, and you can get ones which transmit 3g so you can watch on your phone, not necessary but quite cool. I will be installing a system once I have a house and am not a student.
tom_gr7 Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 gutted mate, being burgled must be awful. Hopefully the feds will get some fingerprints/DNA from the abandoned bike.
D4 UEH Posted March 21, 2014 Author Posted March 21, 2014 BIKE RECOVERD!!! Well most of it, another cheaper bike was stolen at the same time and someone was spotted on it in the next village by a friend of my brother. A bit of detective work later we managed to find out his name and where he lives, sent the police straight round to raid his house and they found my bike in his shed all stripped to bits! so theyve got my frame and forks in for forensics n **** What a !Removed! idiot riding around on a stolen bike a few days after!! Was an 18 year old kid who apparently used to live behind us in skidby. cheeky !Removed!! Hopefully insurance will pay out for the missing bits 1
Gambit Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Nice one mate and well done to Humberside police but have been a well known I thought they would have just shrugged their shoulders. But least you got it back well most of it :)
BoozyDave Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Great news! You shouldn't have to claim on insurance, the police should sell stuff from his house to cover the missing parts. NO, I didn't want an STI, and YES, I could afford one if I did want one!!!!
