My mate's just let me know his bikes have been nicked tonight from Marple Bridge, just outside Stockport. Cheeky f*****rs went in the garage after he rode home at 6.30, when he popped out at 8pm they'd all been lifted

Kona Cindercone (Blue/White) 19"
Giant OCR3 (Light Blue)
Genesis Vapour (Black) 56cm
Sunn Hifi (Black, Rockshox Revelations, XTR mech, XT crank, Hope DH4 brakes) 19" ish

the latter is the clincher, it looks like a Yeti 575 but I've never seen another one in the wild, keep your eyes peeled (Ebay searches set up, gumtree and craigslist being watched)

B'stards.

That's some haul.

Eyes peeled.

Was the garage left open/bikes visible?

the garage door faces *away* from the road, so not visible to passers by. They kicked in the entrance door to get access. Three of the bikes were chained together so they either used bolt croppers and took away the cut chain, or carried the bikes out chained together

That's terrible.
The cheek of stealing them when you're more likely to be up and about at that time.
Did the neighbours see or hear anything?

Will keep an eye out in the middle of Stock-town. I reckon you're probably best going to Levenshulme on market day.

4bikes, did they have a van or summit?

Really hope this gets back to the rightful owner. Possibly with the rest of the fleet?

looks like the seller might read STW as I mailed him last night asking for a viewing and he's all cagey now.

NBT- I doubt it. More like someone from here has been messaging him hate mails.

DONT email him random hate email folks- let nbt handle this alone. You will definitely drive this fella underground and it may dispose of the bike in a canal then no one wins.

One of the bikes has been succesfully recovered by the police and two others have been identified. It's not always a good idea to talk about ongoing investigations though.

Apparently it isn't convenient to view it at all, ever. Also, apparently 30 people have asked the same question. I do hope the Police are dealing with this now?

I think when posting your bike stolen here put a big heading in capital letters

"DONT CONTACT THE SELLER AS IT WILL JEOPARDISE ANY CHANCE OF RETRIEVING IT"

have a looksy at his 'other' items, clearly robbed from beaverbrooks too, and no doubt more stolen goods from some poor buggers house, how can the police NOT get involved in this?!?!?!?!?! its truly gutting to know that there are scumbags around like this chump ๐Ÿ™ i ****ing hate people some times, how have we come to be like this some of us? no morales, no regards for other peoples possesions, then gladly flaunt/sell it on a public website with out a care in the world, makes me sad. the words cancer get and die spring to mind
