Bike Description
Giant Liv Rove 2 Disk brake, dark grey/coral colour with a thin rear-rack with some scratches, and black mudguards. Particular feature, pink lights on the handlebar and the saddle tube. White scratches on the main frame tube.Theft Description
Left the bike at the bike rack in front of the Shangri-La on March 31 at 19:10, locked it on a rack where there was a green bike. When I came back, lock had been cut and left on the floor.Recovery Description
I am so happy to report this! I have recovered it on my own with the help of some friends and luck. Reported to police online (badly managed) then spent a sleepless night researching and found “Find That Bike” website and Bike Register communities (stellar). 2 days after the theft, the bike popped up on 2 websites being sold. Arranged an appointment with the “sellers” and tried to involve the local police who had other priorities (understandable but frustrating). So I stopped a police van in the street (luck) and brought them with me. Bike was recovered but nobody got in trouble (impunity!). I invested on a very serious lock and talk to everyone about Bike Register.
