Two of our cx bikes have been stolen from our locked van in Leeds (LS6) overnight. Absolutely gutted as they are currently not insured as we are between homes. It has to be a targeted job that someone has spotted them whilst the van has been open while we were unloading it earlier this week. Police not going to do anything and no CCTV! Please keep your eyes open on the very rare chance we might get them back!

If anyone has any contacts in the Yorkshire CX community please can you share it as they might be the type of thing to pop up in sales

Bumped for the lunch time Yorkshire crew in case anyone can share this round their networks. Many thanks 🙂

Bit more info as they are relatively distinctive but on first glance look like stock bikes:

Cannondale Caadx Ultegra: grey-green colour, has 2 bottle cages, saddle bag and bike pump mount (though these are all removalable), it is fitted with a WTB Rocket saddle (non stock), wider than standard handlebars, Deda stem, non-stock bar tape by Lizard skin (looks like badminton racket tape), specialised slick tyres, time pedals, FSA SLK carbon seat post.

Rose Pro DX 3000: white colour, womens selle italia saddle, brown scratch about 2/3rds way along the top tube, plastic tape around top tube to protect from a bar bag, scratched brake top (think it is at the top of the right lever), time pedals, specialised slick tyres, 2 bottle cages (silver metal), ritchey stem, the paint on the cranks is quite worn, has a long cage Ultegra rear mech with a epic 12-32 rear cassette!

I’ll keep my eyes peeled and hopefully you’ll get them returned

Will keep an eye out on my side of leeds as i am out riding this afternoon.

Thanks guys.

bloody ell more bikes from North Leeds and both seemed targetted.

Will keep an eye out for you LS8 here, but also be watching out for who is around when I come home from a ride.

I have more than once in my previous house ridden round the block when I have had a van driving slowly behind me. They may have been just giving me space but just not worth the risk.

Balls 🙁

I’m in LS4 and ride through Hyde Park/Woodhouse on my way home most nights, so I’ll keep an eye out in case they’re still in the area.

you need move to the posh south side of Leeds.

you dont shit on your own doorstep, or so they say.

eyes peeled if i happen to get out. and a pal who is a bobby has been told.

Eyes peeled whilst at work in Beeston.

Lol @ South Leeds Ton!

Details have also been sent to 23 bikes shops in the area – sorry if that is any of you I am filling your inboxes with! You never know where they might end up!

Another LS26 pair of eyes here.

I will be looking out too. B stard s
