The Klein

About 13 years ago, some dirty, low-minded, no-account, son of a mangy skunk stole my Klein mountain bike. I think the gray, 20", Klein Fervor frame pictured here is it.

sorry to hear that your bike got stolen! but i got that frame from velocult.com some month ago and i can account for that.
i would have preferred you to PM me regarding that topic instead of publicly calling me a thief... :roll:

 

[paulvandermoolen]

that's indeed not the way to acuise someone in public of theft. you should have done it by pm or something. or at least come with proof that it was yours. also that should be done by pm.

Concerning Klein Thefts

Relax, dude... I never accused anyone of anything. I merely said some vagabond swiped my beloved Klein 13 years ago, and that the frame pictured here, I think, resembles it. Let's just say, hypothetically, that the frame here is my long lost bike... That was 13 years ago, dude! In other words, even if this was my bike, it probably changed hands several times over the past dozen years; as such, the odds that you were the one who actually stole it are close to zero.
In truth, though it looks uncannily like mine, I doubt this frame is my stolen bike. Rather than accuse me of accusing you for thievery, I was rather hoping you would have posted some useful comments regarding the preventive measures one could take to thwart off bike thefts, a ubiquitous problem that is a blight and a curse to everyone that owns a nice one.[/b]
