Bikes stolen - Binfield overnight (15-16th May) please read!

[MadDad]

Please help/share.

Those of you how know me well know that after my family my most treasured possessions are my bikes - overnight someone broke into my garage stole them. While I think there is little or no hope of recovering them please keep your eyes open for the following;

Colnago C60 in dark metallic blue fading to black (OFMA), 3T carbon bars and seatpost, Selle Italia SLR saddle, Dura Ace Di1 groupset, Stages Dura Ace left crank power meter, Zipp 303 wheels with Vittoria open corsa gumwall tyres - a true work of art.

Dedacciai K-19 (my 40th birthday present from my family) - a very distinctive Titanium bike - half of the frame is naked Titanium with some white paintwork and white lettering. Just in the middle of re-building it with full 105 groupset, Deda zero bar, stem and seatpost with a Selle Italia SL saddle. It has distinctive Campagnolo Zonda wheelset with Challenge Paris Roubaix tyres just fitted. As I was in the final stages of re-build the bars didn't yet have any bar tape wrapped on them.

In addition to the above bikes a 2013 Colnago CX-1 Evo frame in Red/White was stolen along with a set of Fulrcum Racing Zero wheels which had Vittoria open corsa gumwall tyres fitted to them.

To say I am devastated does not come close to how I'm feeling right now. I was lucky and privileged to own two such fantastic bikes and have little hope of ever seeing them again - please keep your eyes peeled and if you know anything please contact me or call the Police.

Really sorry to read that OP as I used to live in Binfield!

I don't know anything about bikes that don't have engines, but they seem to have been pretty special.

I hope they get recovered OK.

[MadDad]

Thanks, they were pretty special - the Ti and C60 were one off builds, probably half way across Europe by now....

Just in case anyone does get offered a bike that's too good to be true this is what they look like;

Mad,

Very sorry to hear that, I know how much the bikes are your passion.

I will keep an eye out, but it seems unlikely the scrotes will be riding them around locally

Makes me worried about leaving my garage door open!

Thank you - I imagine they're probably half way across Europe by now, Police think that they were stolen to order. They're very specialist and all one off builds, if they go on eBay/Gumtree etc they'll be easy to spot.

That sucks massively. I'll keep an eye out and I'll spread the word on a local Facebook group I'm on.

The Admiral pub had bikes (though cheap stty ones) stolen from their yard area on the same evening. Might be worth having a word about CCTV? Could be related?

Thanks for the heads up, you never know. Only thing that would make me think they were unrelated was that I had a few other bikes of a lesser value that they didn't touch - they actually spent time cutting through the highest grade bike lock I could find! Police think they had something similar to the tool firemen use to cut the roof off cars!
