Unhappy Pictures of son's stolen bike

re this thread,
http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=360228

If you live in or around Beeston, ie Chilwell, Clifton, Stabbo, Long Eaton, Sandiacre, can you pls keep ur open for his bike that was stolen yesterday morning im not expecting to see it again, but if it was nicked by a junkie needing his next fix, well u never know.

The allen key bolt on the handle bar stem is rusted as he lost the plastic cover otherwise its in tiptop shape, frame number to be added later when i found where i wrote the bloody thing down

Thats a real $hit Dazza. Hope they catch the git.

No idea about bikes but it looks a good one and maybe not that common, how much do they retail at ?

With the frame number etc alot of people who are in the know about bikes may not want to part with hard cash for a bike the police may recover one day. Try checking ebay everyday for it on there.

Good luck

This is obviously a picture of the replacement bike and not the original.

Why are you bothered about the original now? Surely it's the insurance company's problem?

Its not completely unrealistic to get the bike back mate.

Ages ago I sold, at the time, a really high end bike to a friend of mine. He left it unlocked in the small village near his home. By chance I was driving through the village and actually spotted the bike the same evening as when it was stolen. Within about 4 hours it had been dismantled, re-sprayed and put back together.

He got the bike back needless to say.

Good luck

brett

Equally, someone in my street had their bike stolen from outside the station. Saw it a few weeks later subtly "modified" but it was definitely the same bike. Police were called, bloke was arrested, day in court, etc. and got the bike back, plus some expensive parts the new "owner" had added

Someone, somewhere, has got a nice bike for £50.

Said ****** got three bags for £50, a quick hit, a couple of hours sleep, and then off for his next theft.

**** isnt it......

it certainly is, but finding the bike may lead to finding out who actually nicked the bike in the 1st place, but as i said i don't hold out much hope

Sorry to hear that Dazza, I have a KrakenSE they are superb bikes for the money.
Unfortunatly that makes them very popular, have a run out to Sherwood Pines or somewhere similar at a weekend and you will probably see another dozen or so Carrera Krakens.

I'll keep my eyes open for you as the 2004 model is easy to spot and it would be rare to see one for sale this early.

Cheers
