Devastated to say my Pinnacle Arkose D1 (only 5 months old) was stolen from my houseboat in Clapton, east London by a gang of teenage boys. I had forgotten to lock it for the first time ever it seems, and I saw them through the window but couldn't get outside quick enough.
It's size S, Kingfisher blue/green. Had switched the standard tyres for black marathon pluses with a white edge (pictured) and added a pannier and mudguards. Hefty Abus bordo lock sitting useless on the frame :(
I'm just trying to flood the internet and marketplaces with pics of it so someone might spot it somewhere. They were like 16 year old chancers, not professionals so I'm hoping they may do something stupid that allows me to track it down.
Have reported to the police so I have a crime ref no.
Sorry to hear that.
From reading other posts here I think Facebook Marketplace is the go-to place for shifting stolen bikes. Unlike eBay you can't see past sold items so it's harder to track down after the fact. Check gumtree and Shpock as well.
Good luck!
