Dieter ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Posted January 14, 2013 Share Hello! We took a picture of a high end bike 'owned' by a local near Barra lodge. The local was a scrap with stab wounds to the face! Anyway, I do not cycle but I know that this was definitely stolen. He said he got it from South Africa and I know this is the best place to try find the original owner.

Still has eggbeaters on and he has plakkies, thats freshly stolen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigghead Posted January 14, 2013 Share Ya, also has the speed sensor attached to the fork. Wonder if he had a cycle computer that came with the bike when he bought it from the "LBS". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dieter ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Posted January 14, 2013 Share Did you ask him how much is cost? My Dad actually spoke to him and was contemplating just stealing it back with a pajero bumper rather than intel gathering hahaha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Omega Man Posted January 14, 2013 Share A mate of mine spotted an Aprilia Mille in Maputo with a milk crate tied to the pillion seat being used as a delivery bike a few years ago. This kind of thing makes me SO angry. Edited January 14, 2013 by Omega Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stretch Posted January 14, 2013 Share wait until he gets puncture, he will look for weeks for the tube........... at least he can put a tube in.........wait until the brake pads wear out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's do that! The kid obviously needs a bike so maybe bring with a low end bike and some cash... That one looks like big money! Also can someone please tell me the exact model so I can change the thread title. Will make it easier for the unfortunate owner to hear about it.
