    And no, I wasn’t aware that that vendor sells bikes with, ‘questionable provenance’, have you reported the vendor, if you are aware of his questionable stock? Because he will be reported by me.

    What is to miss? I had already purchased the bike before It was indicated to me it may be stolen, like I didn’t suspect that may be the case. Could have walked away, but secured the bike tracked down the owner, reunited the bike with its rightful owner, what’s to miss? Oh yes and risked being out of pocket. The owner was over the moon. Surely that is a good outcome? Or Like you could have walked on.

    The market stall holder asked for £85, they get some of their stock from lock up auctions and storage clearance down there, I thought he obviously doesn’t know what he has, or it is stolen. But it now seems the bike was only stolen two days ago from the owners garage, along with a carbon fibre race bike. So if he was selling it for £85, he must have given pittance for it. Cheekily I offered him eighty. Five minutes later I was sat in front of my laptop checking the stolen lists & speaking with Condor.

    Update for those interested.

    Seb from Condor has contacted the owner who purchased the bike, it was stolen a few days ago, he has passed on my number, awaiting a call!
