Ok, bit of help needed here please.

A friend of mine has within the last hour had her Cube access wls sl 2013 stolen from out of her car. - smashed a window to get in .. How do we go about trying to get it back?

The one thing we have I guess is its a womens bike so bit hard to sell on and stands out a bit from other bikes going around?

No idea what to do, but she's heartbroken.

and i'm giving away a Lumenator for the best advice in tracking in getting the bike back

The only thing I can say is set up eBay, Gumtree etc searches. Check local car boots and give pictures to all local bike shop and cash converters.

Really hope she gets it back

Didn't see anything - sorry Smudge. I imagine its in someone's shed, garage or back garden for a couple if weeks before hitting eBay...

Cheers Jamj.

Been a busy morning setting searches up and visiting local shops.

It also had Troutlight Liberator on the bars.

We also have CCTV images from along the road - one looks like him pushing it, and should have clearer ones later today done ready for the Police visiting tomorrow.

Why a scrote would nick a womens specific bike,it will stand out to anyone into biking in the area as probably the only womens Cube around.

Thanks Stumpy, as you well know, its not the type of bike for going to the shops on. and should stand out like a saw thumb if seen.

Try using [url= http://findthatbike.co.uk ]Find That Bike[/url] for alerts from Gumtree/eBay/Preloved and [url= http://stolen-bikes.co.uk ]Stolen Bikes UK[/url] for getting word out.

P.S Is the bike that same color as your picture.. [url= http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/cube-mountain-bike-immaculate-condition-used-twice/1040311393 ]this advert[/url] is a bit suspect (says it's a unisex bike when clearly not)
