Angry Stolen BMX

BMX taken from back garden up Stanhill about 10:30pm tonight, if anyone spots the bike, is offered one, or know someone that's recently acquired one please let me know. My friends son is heart broken.
These bikes cost a fortune, I know because we just bought one for our son last Friday, (with a bike lock!).

Since the picture was taken the bike has been fitted with bright orange handle grips which should make it stand out even more.


Thanks in advance
Rhonda

Re: Stolen BMX

I do feel for this little lad. .. my son got his bike stolen 2 weeks ago. A new 」700 bike funded through the 'Cycle to Work Scheme'. Was in the secure garage of his block of flats in Didsbury, electronic gates, password door, bolted to the stairwell railings, etc. The sods still got it !

Course the stupid pratt (sorry son) didn't have it insured ...

Seems they all have a chassis number now ... did this one ?

Will keep a look out.

Re: Stolen BMX

I don't think she took the number down tbh Kate. We always make sure we do this with any expensive purchases, luckily she had a photo, I guess she will take a note of the number in future............once bitten.............x

Good Idea Oh Flashy One! I will mention it to my friend as well, thank you x

If your a kid though and like them you might leave them on

Whoever has it might think they are original so might leave them on.
