The Black Downhill Bike was Stolen in Broad Daylight from the stairwell of a locked property in Woodlands Terrace, Glasgow.Recovery Description
Dear All, At least I have got half of my bike back, and probably more bits to come. I spotted it for sale on Gumtree a month after it had been stolen, first complete and then in bits and after a official investigation the police tracked and found the seller on the other side of Scotland, turned out he bought it from a 'man with a van' but had dismantled and sold the parts already. However I could identify my bike and the parts with the police beyond doubt so they could at least recover some parts from those buyers, including my precious Hope Race E4 brakes:) and there is hope that I still get the other parts back. Congrats to stolen-bikes.co.uk and Glasgow Police for the success. Kind regards, Ingo
