Roshambo Posted December 5, 2015 Share Stumbled across this ad on junkmail last night. Possibly one of the bikes stolen from Yeti recently? I have let the guys at Cyclic/Yeti know so they can investigate. http://www.junkmail.co.za/sports/cycling/gauteng/pretoria/pretoria-east/fox-yeti-sb5c/60001248 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madbradd Posted December 5, 2015 Share I passed the message on to Jared. Turns out it was one of their bikes! they went to the guys house and all the stolen bikes were there!!! Apparently "he was just a seller and doesn't know the guys he got the bikes from" - yup another one of those. If anyone has any idea/means of being able to take this further that would be awesome.

HairyLegs Posted December 8, 2015 Share This is interesting. I alerted Ricky to this ad on the 27 Nov and advised him to get hold of the I.O. for his case and go to this suspected perp. I only saw this thread now to see that he got his bikes back. I am happy for them. The onIy thing that has left a bit of a sour taste in my mouth is that he didn't even bother to drop me a "Thank-you". A week before this, I helped one of the shops in Alberton get some of their bikes back, and the owner was grateful for my help and personally called me to thank me. We always talk about your LBS and relationships, well, actions are louder than words. Just saying..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
