Bike Description

My road bike has dropped handlebars wrapped in black & orange bar tape. The orange is only on the lower part of the handlebars. It is now quite faded orange, and scuffed, while the black is peeling back in places. The bike also has a fitting for a light on the handlebars, just to the right of the stem. The main frame of the bike is a size L. It is black, with white writing saying BTWIN along the bottom part of the frame on both sides. It also has white and orange accents on it. It looks like this: https://images.app.goo.gl/m3LZCbG9S9DWaSDf7 I have additionally fitted SKS mudguards to the bike which look like this: https://images.app.goo.gl/GZwZeigCL1bm57uh9 I have also added a bottle cage to the bike on the bottom part of the triangle that makes up the frame. I have very recently fitted two new gatorskin tyres on both wheels which have this branding: https://images.app.goo.gl/fU9874vy32WjXnLM8   there is another light fitting under the seat facing the rear.

Theft Description

My bike has been stolen from the locked shelter where I work in the genetics department of The Manchester Royal Infirmary. I put my bike in the shelter by the security office at just after 8 am on Tuesday 22nd Feb 2022. This is locked with a code. I then went into work and returned at just after 15:40 unlocking the shelter to see my bike was missing. This shows that whomever stole my bike knew the access code to the shelter. The bike is a Btwin Triban 500 road bike that looks like this: https://images.app.goo.gl/m3LZCbG9S9DWaSDf7 I have added sks mudguards and a bottle holder to the bike and it has two brackets for lights. One on the handlebars right hand side, the other underneath the seat. The bar tape is quite scuffed up and faded. It is in need of replacement. The saddle is also scuffed on the edges from leaning against a pebbledash wall in my back yard. This is my regular commuter bike which I had just replaced the tires and chain on costing >£70. I reported the theft to the security department in the hospital who have said they will look at the security footage for the day.
