I hope your friend gets it back but you only have to look at GumBay to see myriad bike parts on sale: most no doubt legit, but some...? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9009#post-92496 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 10:03:39 +0000 SRD 92496@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I've tweeted it. Can't imagine anyone would try to take this to a used bike shop, but Soul cycles has intercepted two stolen bikes that were on fb/twitter recently. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9009#post-92490 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 09:00:11 +0000 Puzzle 92490@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Hope your friend gets it back.</p> <p>May be worth posting up here</p> <p><a href="http://stolen-bikes.co.uk/locations/scotland/edinburgh/" rel="nofollow">http://stolen-bikes.co.uk/locations/scotland/edinburgh/</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9009#post-92479 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 00:37:00 +0000 kaputnik 92479@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>That's very distinctive, and not that easy to store any place. I hope they get it back. If I see any likely looking characters on something similar I'll be sure to pay attention and get details. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9009#post-92471 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 22:50:06 +0000 DaveC 92471@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Suppose checking Gumtree and Ebay would be the most obvious suggestion....</p> <p>I'm sure others might have more useful suggestions. I wish your freind luck in getting it back. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9009#post-92468 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 22:30:36 +0000 LivM 92468@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>aha, thanks both.

It's pretty distinctive. He has customised it with black reflective tape along most bars, it has a couple of lights on the front and one on the back, with pannier rack. </p> <p>Please get in touch if you spot it - also advice about where he should circulate the news would be great too. </p>
