Unfortunately no. And the cover for my company car doesn't help much. Devastated.

Cheers. Yeah my thoughts exactly. Its not the type of bike the thieves can offload for cheap and not draw attention.

Update: the police have looked over my van and have found a few fingerprints at the point of entry. Still waiting on the results. Hopefully leads me to my bike.

Cool. Do you have an exact link to that page? can't seem to find the right one.

To the OP that sucks your bike was stolen, I hate people that steal stuff!

Is it worth posting a 'wanted' for sale thread on Gumtree in an attempt to weed out the thief? Might be worth a shot!

Ouch all the best with the search and I'll keep an eye out. I'm still checking trading sites daily for my Yeti stolen a few months ago.

I think I heard on the news today that some guy was busted with over $80k of stolen mtb's in his home in sans souci and a firearm or something....

Yep, 10 bikes of up $8k in value each..... Well let's hope these bikes go back to their owners, and OP has luck with his!

 

[nosliw]

Yeah I've been trying to get in touch with the officer in charge to get a description of the bikes. Will keep everyone posted.

 

[Seb511]

Yes i heard about that bust when i went into my local bike shop a couple of days ago to check if they had anyone in their trying to sell them a bike. The guy they busted was from San Souci. Hopefully, it will lead to me getting my bike back. Haven't heard from the police yet, but they got a match for the fingerprints on my van. I'll give them a call today.

Awesome at least you had some fingerprints! Hopefully they find the thief and more importantly, your bike!

Regarding the San Souci bust, police are getting 100s of calls about it and in the process of trying to correlate stolen bikes to the bikes found. I was told a lot of them had the frames had the serials scratched off.

Give the St George LAC a call and ask to be transferred to the Proactive crime team. You can then give them details of your bike and Event number from the original police report.
