Stolen Morewood Kwela -Howick

[blondeonabike]

Chainsaw's Morewood Kwela was stolen last night from inside our complex in the centre of Howick. It is a white 26" er singlespeed with mavic wheels and avid juicy 5 brakes. The bike was locked inside our bakkie canopy, as hubby works away from home in the week and takes the bike with him when he commutes early on Monday mornings, to ride in the week. We have had builders the last week so I think it is an inside job, our complex in secure, private ( cannot be seen from the street) and surrounded by mounds of razor wire and spikes. It could not have been an easy feat getting it over the wall so some planning was most definatley required. Please hubbers keep an eye out. We appreciate it. Not lekker

 

This is a pic of the frame, before conversion to singlespeed with a different wheelset and shocks.

On second thought go have a chat to Travis and his Dad(name escapes me at the moment) at Howick Cycles as the bike has probably ended up in mpophomeni and sooner or later it will hopefully end up there needing something fixed.

Definatley, they are my next port of call, the builders have just arrived to finish up, and I've offered R500.00 for the "Impimpi" to talk no questions asked.

Good luck Blonde. I also suffered at the hands of builders (well painters) in a complex. Lie detector test showed two were guilty as hell but very little could be done.

Thanks Mazambaan. I'm bummed. It was converted to ss last week friday. Chainsaw had not even had a chance to ride it yet. Our contractor was actually quite cross, as it is the reputation of his business that can be affected by incidents like this. Another bike was stolen last night in our area too. This bike theft is becoming ridiculous.

In the meantime, the contractors are still here and I'm feeling very unsettled being alone, and they have access into my house.

I'm not holding my breath. It is probably long gone by now.
