I'm 95% sure this is my frame - my full bike was stolen 2 weeks ago:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/232885723296

https://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/stolen-whyte-19ti/

Should I report the the police or insurance co?

Still there - I was having problems with the link. STW forum was adding some odd characters - now should work.

All odd - a classic Ti frame on a 24 hour auction with virtually no info, spelling mistakes and poor pics.

I have plenty of photos, and probably some good enough to ID it, to my eye at least. And I know two of the bolts on the adjustable dropouts are almost rounded out (as I tried to undo them a month ago...!)

Not sure any of this would stand up to police scrutiny though.

My insurance (Hiscox) were great and have paid out already - should I tell them, or inform the police?

A call to the Police and Insurance co then although I wouldn't put too much energy into trying to get it back as I guess it's now the insurance co's property.
