  • Incredible that you got it back.

    My friends Norco DH bike was stolen in 2005, it was one of only two imported into the UK. Purple frame with Monster T forks.
    I still keep an eye out for it turning up.

  • Yeah it was a really weird situation too. A guy who spotted it messaged me. Then a different guy bought it but pressure and his conscience got the better of him and he contacted me. Then the police were utter dicks who refused to release it without a frame number, despite the frame number being '8'...and me having written proof from Joe himself at BMW.
    Then I ended up selling it to a friend of the guy who bought it then handed it back to me, for £2000 complete, only for him to put it straight on ebay for £7000 😂

  • the police were utter dicks

    Every single interaction I've had with the police has been sickening. When my pals bike was stolen they done literally nothing about it.
    It cost £4k in 2004. If I robbed a bookies for £4k there would be a fucking manhunt.

    put it straight on ebay for £7000

    Cunt!
