imhereithink Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 i know how you feel, my complete bike was nicked couple of months ago, never seen it since. Check the local bike shops, they usually try to sell bits on. I heard from a few bike shops round by me people were trying to sell bits of mine to them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew62 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 I don't want to sound a dick, but, leaving your bike unattended in Wellingborough..............what were you thinking? That place is awful. ON the plus side its a small place and everyone there is family so you should hopefully see you wheel fairly soon. You know you'll see some scum bag on a £70 full-sus with it in the front, so hopefully you'll get it back. Again, Wellinborough though........ *tuts* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
