call them up, ask them for a meeting, then bring like, 5 of your mates for security if they turn out to be dodgy, if it your bike, try and get it back without paying for it (providing you bring photo of your bike and such going "hey that my bike") keep presisting them and try and get it back, NEVER pay them, even if you're paying only £50 to get your bike back is a small price to pay, you're still paying criminal to steal more bike to sell it.
notice the telephone number is a mobile phone - theft tend to use them when selling illegal good, another evidence that it could be stolen.
police won't do anything.
ask your mate to stand back and not be obvious, so you can see if this bike is in fact your, or not, if it not, you can walk away.
