[Closed] Bikes stolen in Sheffield: Intense 5.5 and Spesh Enduro

sorry bud hope your insured will keep an eye out where about in sheffield

Sorry, but as I live in the UK bike crime capital of Bristle and no-where near Sheffield - All I can do is commiserate 😥 That sucks nuts mate. 🙁

That is the second time in as many years - poor you mate. I am feeling sick for you!

have M&S insurance so am well covered, but my premiums next year will likely be painful. thanks for the sympathy.

got in through the coal grate, crikey that's some sneaky stuff.

I keep mine in the cellar but thankfully the grate has been flagged over.

if they have made that much effort then i'm guessing they knew what they were doing and so you are unlikely to see them again but I'll keep my eyes open for anything.

don't suppose you happen to be in the Walkley / Hillsborough area do you. some fella had his trek taken from the area. just wondering if its people who are scoping about after seeing people return home

bump to the top

Hi bud,

I'm sorry to hear your bikes were liberated.

I know this could be a little insensitive, but have a look at: http://www.klaxonsignals.com/productDetails.asp?productID=53&categoryID=50 and an alarm. It will scare the bejesus out of anyone who triggers it, and the sound wave will travel, so you will hear it if you aren't in the property (and this is)

May I also suggest some big chuff off wall/ground anchor (I get a little discount from a lock firm in sheffield if you see anything you want (i live just out of sheffield))

Again, i'm sorry to hear your bikes were taken, the thieving little f*ckers.

I'm more than happy to help with security stuff if I can. those inferno units are about £250 and they need an alarm to trigger them (but not a cheap one as you do not want false alarms)

Protects secured area for the few minutes before security or police can attend

thanks guys. have an alarm system, but usually don't switch it on unless we are away or in bed. we were in the lounge watching tv at the time with two dogs, can't believe the nerve to break in while it's obvious we're in.

just off psalter lane for what that's worth.

no biscuits for those dogs hey. They probably saw you bringing the bikes in the house i always make sure theres nobody in the street when i bring my bike in you can never be to careful. I'll keep a look out in crookes

i'll keep me eyes open too mate, im on the moor every day so i will get in touch if i see owt

my future house will have..........

one of those metal container things for storing bikes in the garden, but installed in the cellar, disguized.

shotgun blanks
smoke bomb
paintball claymoors!

Is this the same frame that was on Ebay a couple of weeks ago? I guess by your usernames it is. Did you give your address out to anybody?
(I was the one that enquired about the mech hanger BTW)

that was my thought too

You should be able to leave one area armed - i.e. the cellar.

I don't 'do' security stuff per se, but get involved with it by proxy of other work.

Not aimed at you directly, but an alarm should leave vulnerable area's armed all the time (unless specified not to)

As a guide, have a look at the Honeywell Galaxy panels, this is what I get involved in a bit and they can be programmed quite specifically to leave certain area's alarmed - and at few hundred quid, much better than anything else i've seen (especially as they are, as i understand, specified for fitting into banks) - and you can have a keyprox to disable that area should you need to go in with an auto re-arm after X amount of time, or a keycode... all good stuff.

I hope you don't mind the slight thread hijack, please accept my sincere apologies if its not appropriate.

Once again, you have my apologies.

Alarms? Rubbish. Get a tiger.

Sucks about the bikes, hope the guys who nicked them contract a painful disease and die slowly.

yeah it was on ebay. ended up selling my Yeti. I never give out my address and never meet people at my house to view anything.

still am not sure if it was local youths who got lucky or a more targeted theft. we were out in the peaks on saturday. it's hard to disguise where you live returning from a ride.

will be setting the cellar zone alarm on at all times now. coal chute has now been double barred so no human can get thru.

cheers for the sympathies.
