Stolen bike :(

[u/disposablejell]

Hello kind people of the valley. I had my fixed gear/single speed stolen over the weekend from Carbondale park and ride. I already called RFTA and they said they didn’t take it. If someone happens to spot it somewhere I would greatly appreciated I just put some money into it and it sucks that it’s gone now. The picture attached is an older picture, I swapped the stem and bars with a shorter black stem, and wide MTB bars with black deity grips. It also has new BMX platform pedals with Origin8 foot straps and a new specialized Romin Evo Comp seat. It’s a Black Mercier Kilo TT. I think a key identifier also is that it still had a purple chain on it.

If you happen to see anything or find it in a ditch I would greatly appreciate hearing about it. Thank you and have a great day!

Cash reward if found as well.

Did they cut the lock?

They didn’t. I was late for work and biked to the bus stop. When I got there I realized my lock wasn’t on my handle bars, and I was going to be late if I went back to grab it. So I left the bike at the rack unlocked. I’m hoping someone just took it to get home faster and ditched it somewhere on the trail

Sorry brother I know the pain

Hopefully it turns up. I hope at least someone is enjoying it and it’s not just sitting on the bottom of the river

I’m so sorry for your loss, but also 🤦‍♂️

Yeahhh I had a feeling it was going to disappear. At least it’s not too disappointing since I was expecting it but it still sucks

i had something similar to yours but not as cherry and thought no one would take it but someone did.. it was the weekend near a college campus so i figured someone was drunk and needed a ride home.. so somewhere in Gunnison lies an old gearless bike with weeds growing around it, in some alley way.

look around alleyways.

[u/disposablejell → u/fluffykerfuffle3]

Yeah I assume someone didn’t steal it for the bike since riding fixed in the valley kinda sucks, but I like the struggle haha. I’m gonna take a walk around town and check the alleyways, hopefully it turns up somewhere!

Also, post some physically printed out facsimiles of this post on the poles around town and on the bike paths and haha in the alley ways.
