hello bike nerds,

i have good news concerning my bike collection; last weekend i got 6 out of 7 back.
i had to pay some money for them which is very weird but nevertheless i am happy.
maybe you remember that my collection got stolen right before x-mas, i posted it here
and i got a lot of sympathy from you guys, thanks for that!
the danish police was not very helpful so i tried everything i could come up with to get
them back. apart from flyers in the city i mailed to all the bike dealers i could find.
that was was still in the old year. then nothing happened for more than a month until a bike
dealer contacted me that one of his customers got my bikes offered.
after quite some thinking i decided to go along with a deal and buy them back.
weird shit and spooky people involved but for the equivalent of roughly one of my bikes i
got six of them back.
The Yeti Ti Arc and the Yeti Ultimate were locked together and i got the Ti Arc back with still
the kryptonite new york fahgettaboudit lock attached to the toptube - meaning the Ultimate's
toptube got cut. i didn't get the Ultimate back but it got obviously destroyed - savage thiefs.
obviously the six remaining bikes cannot got back to the basement but having them stored in
my three room flat is also not really an option.
that's why i now decided to sell the Clark Kent and the Serotta together with a bunch of bike parts
i have stored in boxes here...
A serious sales thread is coming your way soon...

thanks,

uli
 
Uli,

Good news, think the first time I have heard someone got his stolen (in your cas multiples) bike back.

good to hear that its worth to mail all dealers etc.

Cheers,
Martin
 
Your story was Heartbreaking and glad to hear you have your bikes back. I don't suppose the police were able to assisted further after your liaison?
 
congratulations uli, shame it didnt include all of them but a positive result all the same......
 
Glad to hear you got them back - must have been hard to pay the scum that stole them but a means to an end none the less.
 
:shock: I guess you didn't let on as to who you were?

That's crazy that they would sell them with the locks on - I read your thread before Xmas and I'm pleased you got them back but condolences for the Ultimate :(
