Help Kristin get her bikes back

If you should happen to be offered a very nice Felt bike at a price that seems too good to be true, you might want to get in contact with Exergy Twenty12 - there's a reasonable chance that they belong to Kristin Armstrong. The bikes were stolen whilst in transit somewhere between Germany and the USA and could therefore turn up in Europe or North America. More details here.

Chances are a few bits and pieces will be removed or swapped for other bits in an attempt to disguise them, but with such a collection of top-notch parts the thief won't want to change too much for fear of reducing the value. The team is offering "a substantial reward" for productive leads; you'll also earn the gratitude of one of the greatest cyclists the world has ever seen.

STOLEN BIKE

STOLEN from Cromwell Road, Cambridge 24/25 July 2012

My black Carrera fixed-gear bike. I bought it specifically for my new job as

a schools cycling safety instructor; hence it has V-brakes front and rear - this

is quite distinctive as most fixie bikes have no brakes or a front brake only - and a flip-flop rear hub (ie; one with a fixed cog on one side and a freewheel cog on the other). It

also has very distinctive "LDN BIKE SWARM" stickers on the top tube of the

frame (probably the only ones in Cambridge, though these may have been removed)

and a slightly tatty saddle.

Having been out of work - and now unable to start my new job - I can't afford to pay

a reward to anyone who either finds it or provides information leading to its return;

however, I will most definitely buy you a beer or three and be happy to provide any bike maintenance you may need.
