Geraldek Posted August 5, 2014 Share Some good news! With the kind assistance of Edge_Design and other resourceful Hubbers as well as the Stellenbosch police we were able to recover and positively identify all the parts from the bike. The hunt for the frame is now on. Thanks all for the advice and help. Wannabe, V12man, Storm 78 and 12 others 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headshot Posted August 5, 2014 Share Wow, that's brilliant. I lost a whole bunch of stuff to theft in March but nothing ever showed up on Gumtree or here. On crime in general I agree nowhere is safe. We have a holiday place in probably the smallest "town"in SA. There is one shop, on a farm. The permanent population can't be much more than 100. Tik is there - our boat trailers had all the lights smashed to get the bulbs out. Numerous outboard motors have been stolen including all four of our owners (perp now behind bars after burning down a house). Another one was locked up a few weeks ago for stealing a firearm.

HSW Posted August 5, 2014 Share If this guy is part of a syndicate he will have more than one bike, I know that there was bikes stolen from a bike shop about a week or two ago. My Specialized Epic Carbon Comp was also stolen on 17 July in Stellenbosch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nox1111 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Give us some feedback post this whole thing going down! How and where were the guys caught? Whom was involved - syndicate or one guy acting alone? Organised or parts for money for tik scenario?Have you located your frame? How did you locate the perp - as a result of this thread?When, where and how did your bike get stolen? We see more than enough grim stories on here everyday, and then the one time there is a glimmer of hope you deprive us of the juicy details. comeeee on! r0adrunner, Skylark and Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
