I've just been informed by a colleague about a bike stolen in urmston, Manchester overnight. The bike belonged to another keen cyclist colleague who was killed in a motorcycle accident almost exactly a year ago today. The bike has special sentimental value as his wife had intended to pass the bike onto their son when he is big enough to ride it. Understandably they are both devastated.

It's obviously a Trek and I am told it had 105 finishing kit on it but can anyone identify it from this photo?

I think it is a 2010 Trek 1.5 model. Aluminium frame, carbon fork.
