MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
This is really for people in nw leicestershire area - Markfield, Coalville etc. B**tards broke into my garage last night & took my Merlin Oreas, Turner Spot & kids bikes - 2 Specialized Rockhoppers. 1 Silver & 1 Blue.
Spot is deep red colour but is short of shifters. Talas RLC Gold Hadley Hubs King headset & red Tune chainset + Thomson finishing kit
Merlin has King rasta headset, black f100rlc, Black king hubs, Marta sl, (silver) Raceface chainset & X0 mech & shifters.
So fairly distinctive bikes
Please, All riders in this area, put the word around. I will pay a REWARD for information leading to their recovery.
Although they are insured, i'll be very lucky to get back what they're worth.
Thanks
Gutted. 😥
Gutted - i wanna cry 😥
Fargin sons of bastages - hope you get them back 🙁
Out of interest, how do insurance companies view "home-made" bikes that one has built up oneself? Do you need to have kept receipts for the (new) parts or would a set of detailed photographs of the components suffice should you need to claim?
munkster - don't know about that one. Guess i'll be finding out tho. Shit i wish i'd taken some photos - only just built the merlin.
Sorry, didn't mean to add to your woes - fingers crossed for you...
Dont worry, not adding to my woes!!
Having also had bikes stolen, you have my sympathy.
Utter, utter chunts.
S'like the kid I saw lat night, on a brand new Trek; probbly nicked. No ****ing respect for other people.
this is on topic no?
If ya see a youg scroat riding a tricked out Turner Spot or Merlin Oreas in nw leicestershire - chuck a stick thru. their spokes & get me my bike back. 😈 Or let me know where they are - email in profile
Sorry to hear your terrible news fella.
I had my bike stolen last year, a custom Stiffee that I had built up over time. You can ask nicely at your lbs for a formal insurance quote/valuation. Just list all components down in full or for others take your bike in. Costs about a fiver but well worth it.
Good luck with trying to recover them and I am sure the insurance will be no worries.
