It must have been a bad night in Sydney... I went down to the garage this morning to have discovered that my wire cage had been cut open and two of my bikes stolen.

Cell Team 2007 (dark blue and black), 59 cm
- has Specialised Pave Advanced seat post
- Specialised Toupe 143 mm saddle
- 2 x Profile Design Stryke bottle cages (one blue and one black)
- Profile design Carbon CGT aerobars

Cell SS101 (wite), 17"
- has 2 x Profile Design Strykwe bottle cages (both red)
- a women's specific design saddle
- XR2 bar ends

:cry:

I have called the police... I hope they catch the scumbags...

Regards.

Ouch and sorry to hear it.

The common garages in our complex often get burgled. The general policy is to consider them as no different to a public street, you need to secure everything. Wire fencing is useless for theft protection in our experience.

Crap, sorry to hear that.

Your in the inner west? which suburb?

Surry Hills.

The bikes were locked to posts inside my separate garage (but it has a wire cage front to the common carpark/visitor's carpark. I foolishly only secured the front wheel rather than the wheel and the frame, so they simply took off the front wheels. The arseholes then proceeded to cut a few of the spokes for good measure! Luckily, they didn't damage the Dura-Ace front wheel I had on the roady.

Bastards!

Cheers.
