Sad news from Premier Dealers Flare Clothing Co. this morning: Yesterday the Nottingham home of owners Hannah and Ben was burgled and all their bikes were taken, along with Hannah’s car.
Heartbreakingly, a couple of the bikes were brand new and had only been ridden twice. Photos and details of the bikes below, please keep your eyes peeled and let’s make these bikes too hot to handle.
If you have any leads phone 101 quoting incident number 88-11032016.
Bikes are as follows:
2016 Transition Smuggler orange large X01/Rockshox Pike spec with custom orange fork and rim decals
2016 Transition Smuggler black medium X01/Rockshox Pike spec with custom real flower decals and pink fork decals
2014 Canyon Torque FRX Rockzone DH bike small
2012 Trek Ticket grey/purple Hope custom build
2012 Trek Madone 3.1 WSD
2009 Commencal Supreme V2 DH bike
They also took Hannah’s car but she’s not so concerned about that! It’s a 2006 VW Golf 2.0 TDI, Dark Blue YA55 TJX
Photos attached, it’s advised to call 101 quoting incident number 88-11032016
David started mountain biking in the 90’s, by which he means “Ineptly jumping a Saracen Kili Racer off anything available in a nearby industrial estate”. After growing up and living in some extremely flat places, David moved to Yorkshire specifically for the mountain biking. This felt like a horrible mistake at first, because the hills are so steep, but you get used to them pretty quickly.
Previously, David trifled with road and BMX, but mountain bikes always won. He’s most at peace battering down a rough trail, quietly fixing everything that does to a bike, or trying to figure out if that one click of compression damping has made things marginally better or worse. The inept jumping continues to this day.
Noooooo!
Gutted. Nice company to deal with.
Thieving bottom feeders!
