Likely Stolen bike spotted, Yagoona, Sydney

Postby aoeu » Sat Jan 01, 2011 10:45 pm

This evening I saw a pretty shading looking guy carrying a bike that I doubt he would have bought himself.

-It was a white GT road frame, similar to this http://velospace.org/files/zaskar100.JPG.
-All white including forks.
-Had flat road bars with a blue bmx foam thingy wraparound thingy on the handlebars.
-disc brakes
-black road tyres

I know the type of people that ride these bikes and this guy wasn't one of them. If you know anything about this or remember it being reported stolen, pm me.

Thanks for spotting this. We obviously need to protect peoples identities so this approach is good. Did the bike have a chain on it (hence was being carried). Hopefully the info in the thread will suffice should your suspicions be confirmed and an owner undertake research online.
