A friend has had her Corratec Superbow World Cup stolen and would like it back as she uses it for racing.
As it’s quite an unusual bike the frame is going to be more distinctive than the components, so no list. I guess there’s a possibilitiy that it could pop up anywhere in the country too, I believe some thieves have vans.
Any sightings my email is in my profile, cheers.

Morning bump. 😀

So where was it taken from? Vague Comments about where it may show up aren’t really that helpful 😕

That’s what I thought too, but I decided that a dodgy looking Corratec is going to be more helpful than knowing it was stolen from Madrid. It’s also a bit of a long shot, but I don’t expect people to be going out of their way to look for it either.
It was only posted as it’s quite an unusual frame and i wouldn’t have posted the same for a Stumpjumper or Orange…
Where it is taken from is quite a bit less relevant than where it might be sold and as I said thieves have vans and I imagine passports too.

Whilst I agree, I’m prepared to wager the odds that it ends up in the UK (as you’re obviously inferring) is absolutely tiny.

Either way, hope she gets it back.

Complete agreement from me, but a Corratec popping up in the UK would be a rare, but noticable and worth the ask. I’m not expecting to blow open an international crime ring either. 😛

you want me to tackle a potential thief on the basis they bought a frame the same as your friends?

Before I do that will you either give me a little more info (size? or a partial frame no??) so I don’t assault an innocent (is there such a thing?) spaniard?

If I now want anyone to tackle potential thieves I know who to call, I would prefer the dropping of an email if that’s not too much trouble.
Didn’t this forum used to be populated by reasonable people? 🙄

as much as i feel sorry for her, it does mean she can now replace it with a nicer looking bike.
