popcorn_skollie Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Yor bra. Just saw this now. So sorry for your loss. Whenever someones bike gets stolen I feel gutted. Especially people who passionately and patiently build their bike up. I suppose its a good thing that you insured. But I really hope you get her back. I shared the facebook post. and I'll keep an eye peeled. I setup a nationwide gumtree email notification incase anyone wants to sell a 'Reign' Good luck
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted May 20, 2015 Author Posted May 20, 2015 According to the assessor there was someone pulled off their high end roadie recently in salt river. He was bigger than I am, so it's definitely a new MO and they don't pay attention to your size or build. Hulle vat net.

Hulle vat net.They have realized that fighting back is difficult when you hit the floor quickly, and being tangled with a bike adds to the difficulty. Remember they tried the same crap with me in Military road last year.

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted May 28, 2015 Author Posted May 28, 2015 That front derrailleur though...meh - comes with it, really. Besides - it's going. Just keeping the taco, if I can. 30t on the front for now (I can't climb for shaite) and the normal 11-36 at the back until the 11sp XT comes out.  Oh - the mount is going to become home to an upper guide. I've had dropped chains left right & centre on the old reign, with type 2, narrow wide etc.Â
