Bike Description
Celeste Bianchi Via Nirone 7 (2013 edition) with Veloce Groupset. Slightly muddy from recent rides in the rain. Identifying features include a white Bontranger bottle cage (non standard), a small saddle bag (with tube, mini pump and puncture repair kit). Also the right hand side bar tape has a rip in it alongside the brake lever. Was bought from Balham Cycles and has their sticker on the bottom of the down tube. It was stolen alongside my wife's Trek Lexa in bright green with purple detailing so may be offered up for sale by the same vendor.Theft Description
Taken along with my wife's Trek Lexa and another old runabout silver Raleigh from our garage in Pontcanna, Cardiff. Given that 3 bikes were taken (one with no pedals and another with a flat tyre) I think this may have been a planned job and they may well have been taken in a van. This was more than just an opportunist theft and could be a gang operating in the area.
