Not a kitten lover but hey ho!

Eyes peeled peeps

Anyone lost a Trek road bike ? Wilmslow police want to reunite if with its rightful owner.

Recovered very nice road bike. Do you own it? Get in touch…P.s. You'll have to prove you own it! @bikeregister pic.twitter.com/bTfmxU3ii3

No takers on the Trek???

Here’s mine.

I had mine stolen back in 2010 was gutted but knew i’d never see it again so had an insurance replacement.Not long after a very kind member of the STW community found it on Fleabay at a cash converters !!
So some do get found .

Reassurance from Pitcherpro that some do get found 🙂

My Specialized Rockhopper was stolen on 12th November last year from Newport south wales, it has some pretty distinctive marks so i’d know it was mine! If anyone spots it let me know. Apologies for the rubbish photo, I never actually got to ride it.

Great thread, let’s hope that we get some recoveries of our own

It’s Worth posting anything that you see that looks sus(bike related).

Spotted both a Canyon Full Suss and and Norco long travel downhill bike in Stalybridge/Ashton Under Lyne, East of Manchester recently.

Just a heads up really in case anyones lost anything that sounds like them. Both times the rider didn’t fit the bike.

oh god this thread is worse than looking at the dogs home website :cry:. good luck everyone

Cheers Jonah………and bump!!!

Hi Guys,

This my first post. The guy from Holy Spokes recommended I post on here.

My bike was stolen from a garage on Otley Old Road 29/01/2014. It’s a Kona Jake the Snake. Key things to look out for are the wheels. They are RS10’s that don’t match the frame colours – I had the frame replaced under warranty after a year so the wheels have blue and white highlights, while the frame is green and black. It has a black Charge Spoon saddle, mtb spd’s, a Topeak rear rack and mudguards.

It’s a pretty unusual bike. I’ve not seen anyone else riding a Jake the Snake. Let me know if you spot it.

Cheers.

tbh this thread is a great idea, if only to keep a record and create exposure at the number of bikes being stolen – would be great in a case to the police to take it more seriously!

yep i agree with plyphon. this should be pinned

Am I alliowed to agree?? Being the OP?
Bump

‘waves at pitcherpro’ 😉
Also found an alpine recently but owner refuses to answer emails to confirm he got it back or not. bit weird..
both the alpine and pitcherpros pitch was approx 3 month after stolen so dont give up…

people do recognise bikes, especially if they own one similar as was the case both times with me

Stolen last night in Cambuslang.

Santa Cruz Bronson C (large)
2014 Fox Float CTD Boost Valve w/Trail Adjust rear shock (kashima)
2014 Fox Float 34 27.5″ 160mm FIT CDT with Trail Adjust Fork – 15mm QR (kashima)
Reverb Stealth Seatpost (this wasn’t working properly as it wasn’t holding its air pressure and was about to be returned under warranty)
Full XT build (3×10) with shadow+ rear mech
SRAM PC1091 chain
XT Brakes (203mm front / 180mm rear)
DT Swiss 350 hubs
Stans ZTR Flow EX 650b rims
Schwalbe Nobby Nics tyres (tubeless)
XTR Trail SPD pedals
ODI Ruffian Lock-on grips
Black / Red SGD Bel Air RL Saddle
Easton EA70 lo-rise bars
Thomson Stem

This comes after my Santa Cruz Blur LT2 was stolen in September…. other than forks (2013 FOX 36 TALAS RC FIT 180) and non-Kashima rear shock it was almost exactly same spec as the Bronson.

back to the top

Gutted for you chief1409, getting one nicked is bad enough.

Looking at some of the other threads of late it appears these bikes do resurface after a while. Please help find any of the above bikes

How many people were using Strava prior to their bikes getting stolen

There’s a lot if bikes going missing at the moment. If you can, please post pics of them on here and I will continue to bump it to the top every other day. Just might jog someone’s memory!!

I will put a pic of my Santa Cruz TRc when I can!

Matt23 no problem.
Gonna keep this thread going as long as I can…or until folk stop stealing bikes!!

Still looking!

Keep posting the pics peeps

Keep looking peeps

Bump

Don’t forget to post your stolen bikes on here

Stolen a few years ago now, the whole reason i joined the forum – still pissed off about it!

Stolen last week in Twickenham area from a secured shed (clearly not as secured as it could have been). Feeling lucky that I was insured. Apparently a lot of it in the area at present. Keeping an eye on the usual auction / for sale sites.

mrben100 – I’m still very pissed off about the two I’ve lost and can’t believe the Tomac hasn’t been spotted. The turner above of razorrazoo should be easy to spot, providing they haven’t been stripped down.

I’ll keep the thread running as long as I can in the hope that at least one of us gets our bike back 🙂

Thanks Fieldy. Good luck tracking yours down. Just keeping an eye on ebay. Spent today upping security measures for when the new bike arrives.

Still more bikes getting stolen!! Please post on here and I’ll keep sending it to the top!

This must be stolen… Surely… £600 for an Ellsworth of this spec. Anyone???

youre right about that Ellsworth.. bit of a bargain to say the least.

That is probably a scam using a photo found on t’internet rather than a stolen bike. Gumtree is full of them unfortunately.
