As reported by the canny folks over at BikeBiz, Giant are the victims of a rather brazen burglary. An entire container load of 127 Giant electric bikes has been stolen.

.

The robbery happened earlier today (Thursday February 17) on the A12 road and was quickly reported to the police. The A12 runs between Lowestoft and London.

According to Giant, the containers had its locks cut off and all of the 127 e-bikes within were loaded on to a vehicle. And that was that.

The bikes stolen were multiples of the following models:

  • Giant Reign E+ 0 MX Pro in Phantom Green and Black – size large
  • Giant Reign E+ 2 MX Pro in Black Diamond and Black – size extra large
  • Giant FastRoad E+ EX Pro in Black – size large
  • Giant Talon E+ 29er Sport in Graphite – size large and extra-large
  • Giant Talon E+ Sport in Graphite – size large

Ian Beasant, Giant UK MD: “We ask for our retailers and the cycling community to be wary of these goods circulating in the market.”
