As a further point, anyone got any ideas on how I might best go about tracking it down (at least as an outside chance). Two things which are out of my favour:
a) Southampton doesn't have a used bike 'scene' that i could go and check out.
b) My bike has a flat, the tyres are super tight (need serious effort with metal levers), and I have deep rims which require a presta extension (which I don't keep on the bike).
Whatever pikey has nicked it will therefore be unable to ride it, and it will be hard to sell a bike which a customer cannot ride away. Since there is not the same 'scene' as there is in London, there is not an obvious place to go and look. My worry is that it will be either stored or dumped.
