Hello all,

I don't get on here very often but thought I might try and use the power of the forum after some light fingered f*****s stole three bikes from me recently.

The bikes have been stolen from the Wrexham area, and should be pretty easy to spot if they appear on your radar. Detailed descriptions below and a reward if anybody helps recover them and catch the thieving bastards who took them!

White FSA 282 handlebars/Green Lizard Skins grips, Black 60mm stem, Hope head set

White bars, black grips, black Gravity stem

The photo of the Giant is a stock one as the only photo I can find is crap.

Any help muchly appreciated!

Thanks,

Duncan.

I'm in an equally crap position and have find that this website is quite handy [url= http://www.findthatbike.co.uk/ ]findthatbike[/url]

Do search for manufacturer, model and a local wildcard search as sometimes it will just be listed as black mountainbike or they spell the name wrong to avoid search hits.

Thanks for that - quite handy as I've been checking ebay and Gumtree separately. Not holding my breath but you never know!

Will keep an eye out over Llangollen way. Could well be worth a few drives through Queens Park, when some mates MX bikes got taken - that's where they were. A posse was formed and the bikes were recovered. I hear a lot of stolen stuff ends up down there.

Thanks. I do pass through there fairly regularly, but I don't think these were stolen randomly - whoever took them came tooled up with bolt cutters etc, and our house isn't easy to stumble across. Quite possible they've been spotted and I've been followed, which is a bit creepy...
