This is a bit of a long shot, just wondering if you can keep an eye out for a bike that was stolen from outside Tiso Outdoors, Commercial Street, Leith on Friday at about 5pm. The Police have been notified and I don't hold out much hope for it turning up. It's pretty unique since the frame was a warranty replacement and has never been available for resale in the UK. I can guarantee that there won't be any bikes like this in the UK. Don't suppose you kind people can keep an eye out on the off-chance it makes an appearance, Cheers.

"That was asking to be nicked."

So it was their own fault for owning and using a nice bike and we can all stop looking now, then?

May be worth sitting outside the Fort tower blocks for a couple of hours. Thats where my bike turned up and its just round the corner from Tiso's.

I am down the road at Innerleithen. Will keep the eyes peeled round GT and Inners.

Worth keeping an eye on Gumtree as well as ebay and keep your fingers crossed.

Aye the Fort or the Bannana flats would be where I'd be looking. It may also be worth contacting the security folk at Victoria Quay. They have CCTV which look out onto Commercial St almost opposite Tiso's.

TJ lives just around the corner, I'm sure he'll keep em pealed for you too.

I stay close to Fountain Park and will keep an eye out as well. Crammond/Pilton area would be worth a look. If You have a pic, than please email it to me if possible as I've got two friends staying in that area and my mate works in Edinburgh Bicycle co-op so can email it to him as well.

It will either be a chavs trophy or end up on Gumtree in couple of days.

I'm in Edinburgh tomorrow and if I see it I'll ram the b@stard.
Let me know if you get it back tonight though, incase I think you're the b@stard and ram you.
