Stolen bikes

Yeah that’s what made me suspicious - that and being harangued on fb when I asked about it. Ad completely deleted now too.

Had a break in 2 nights ago near Edinburgh. The house is snowed in so they had to walk down a track covered in at least 12 inches of snow. Went out the same way but with 2 bikes and a wheelset.

Crap news. Those bikes probably gave them a pretty good shot at getting away faster than they came. Still not something you expect in this kind of weather. Hope you find a trace of them somehow.

What colour?

Black and grey.

could you find out more info or did you just see it about?

Ach, that’s a shiter. Will keep an eye out. Did they leave any tracks?

Cheers.

There was tracks up the first bit in the snow but the rest were gone - lots of wind had drifted the snow overnight.

I'm posting here on the chance that someone has lost one recently, not gonna divulge anything futher unfortunately...

i have had a Cinelli benny gold mash full build stolen, which is dark grey light grey, but it hasn't popped up or been seen anywhere. looks Kinda similar to the black grey histo from a distance
my thought are maybe its been sprayed or rawed i dont know, still on the hunt

Wheels, bar, stem, crankset?

This was recovered today in Peckham. A chap was riding it around- spotted by my partner who came to get me. after speaking to him and explaining the situation the dude gave it back. He had apparently found it abandoned a year or so ago and had been riding it around since.

how is a baby selling stolen goods?

Frame is definitely too large for them. That's what first aroused my suspicion.

Front wheel with lock attached to it (no key)

Not suspicious at all!

Or axles?

Hate when I can only find my front wheel.

Anyone lost this???https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/trek-domane-al-2-disc-sportive-road-bike-in-carbon-smoke/1398327754
