Although I have lost hope of getting my Surly Crosscheck back I am still keeping an eye out on the alerts I have setup. I have seen a few possibilities recently but they have all been advertised as a frame different size. And it always seems like 58cm is the most popular.

Is it worth checking out a possible match regardless of size advertised?

On the subject of stolen bikes, has anybody been through the experience of actually seeing their bike advertised?

I have subscribed to notifications and a search the various sites for any sign of my Surly (see above) but I am wondering how long before I might expect to see signs of it, if at all.

I had my Surly crosscheck stolen from London Bridge/Borough and Friday 7th June. Was built with a mismatch of parts. The photo shows an alfine hub but was running as singlespeed at the time of the theft as the hub was getting a service. The Alfine shifter and cable was still attached but not going anywhere. There is distinctive yellow electrical tape holding the cable to the down tube (I know, I had run out of cable ties). Other notable thing was it had a Brooks saddle which had scratches on the nose from when I have had it upside down changing a flat.

I am not holding out much hope, expect that it is being stripped for parts as I type this.
