Its OK, Its just been reported to police, gumtree and local papers, he appears to have turned his phone off so keep leaving messages to remind him. For some strange reason he is now deleting the old adverts as we speak, good job I copied and pasted them all out!
Will keep you all updated
Its very therpeutic and it wont get my lovely willier with carbon fibre saddle back but it does help!
PEACE

Guys, who wants their own back on a serious bike thief?? I think we all do.
I urge you then to do a google search on this mobile number 07599365284 if you then click (search again and include ommitted results) you will see he has sold every type of bike, 50 in total in the last 2 months, different sizes, different styles, different name on every advert. A bit of a co-incidence maybe? well I checked to see if he had a shop, as soon as he answsered the phone and couldnt tell me what his name was suggested he couldnt! and the fact he couldnt spell his name, or half of the brands of bikes he is selling, also a bike shop with 50 bikes and 50 different staff names sounds a touch odd.
What do you guys reckon? unfortunately he keeps hanging up on me so I have now left him 27 messages and will continue to call many times every day. I have written to gumtree to report it and would ask if anyone else on the forum wants to call him to question why he has so many bikes and names it will mean he spends more time fielding queries than he does stealing your bikes!
I am almost certain he stole a lemond filmore from a forum member here (sorry for your loss, a lovely bike, I hope you get it back or better luck next time)

Does anyone recognizing this number? 07534289727 if you see it again on gumtree pls let us know, this is the guy who sold my stolen bike and he will live to regret it :)

P.s that Terry guy is the guy who sold my stolen bike, is he a regular?
Im new to this forum but I am an obsessive compulsive who wont give up, Ive been trying to get hold of gumtree to see if they will give info to the police, i dont know if anyone has had experience with that
Again thanks so much for all your help, I will be printing little wallet card pictures of the other stolen unrecovered bikes here so I can keep an eye out when Im on my travels. If i see one I have a spare D-lock which I will put on it and email the forum immediately with the location so we can get police to sort the situation out.

Thanks for all your help, yes it was my bike, unfortunately he has already sold it....
Police wont do shit, any suggestions, I guess he used an internet cafe to put the listings up, stolen credit card to pay for them and a pay as you go mobile.....
I could scream, thanks for all the help, let me know what the next stage is. Im thinking of becoming a stolen bike vigilante

lock used was in hindsight not really adequate, it was two chain and key ones, one made by Oxford (£20) and the other from halfords (£10) I guess bolt cutters would laugh at the pair of them. I guess next time its some heavy weigh more than the bike itself kryptonite D locks with insurance garuantees on them.

Sorry dont have pics of my exact bike but it looks like this apart from the mods listed in my original post, hope this helps.
Many thanks

PLEASE HELP, I have had my gorgeous 2008 Red Wilier Pista stolen today from Cavendish square between 2.15pm and 2.30pm. It had some expensive extras on it, a very distinctive full carbon fibre moulded saddle with no padding and carbon fibre pro-lite bar tape, Look keo pedals, black chain tensioner. I know every other nut and bolt on the bike by heart as I am sure everyone on this forum does :)
If anyone sees someone riding it please slap a d-lock on it, kick them off it, call the police etc. Or if you see it for sale somewhere (brick lane?) please e-mail me mail@impendium.co.uk for a £35 reward.
I have never seen another one and they dont make the colour anymore
Hi Dylan - Im hoping he didnt use an internet cafe for each posting and police can track him....sorry if I did blow it, dont worry I have detailled all his common spelling errors and when he pops up again I will get his new number and track him down.
Dont worry I will get some of these guys, Im a bit new to this but after having my bike stolen I have to balance the karma
