A very sad first post...

Somewhere between 6-9pm on thursday my track bike got stolen from my building (New Canterbury Rd Dulwich Hill).

It is a Cinelli Mash Bolt frame, sugino 75 bits, Gran Compe wheels, Blue selle italia seat.

If you see it around let me know !

Also, if you have a track bike I can borrow to train on until I get it back / save up for a new one, let me know :P

Cheers,

Eric

Total bastards. Also, it's a good idea to put this up on Sydney Cyclist and also Facebook on the DHBC page and I Love Sydney Cycleways etc

Sorry to hear the bad news. You can borrow my blue Apollo for as long as you need. It should be the perfect size for you.

Will do. Thanks Alex!

The bike was in the stairwell of the building, along with 4 other bikes. Mine was the only one taken :/

Yeah I called the cops straight up. The same sergeant came around that visited us the night the creepy dude paid a visit at 3am. Regulars !

What size bike do you need? I have a Vigorelli that has been getting almost no use recently that you could borrow if you want a size 52 frame.

I usually ride a 55. Nathan is kindly lending me his Jamis until I sort something out, but thanks for the offer !

Not mine unfortunately ! Seen a few 55cm bolts go up for sale but have been able to rule them all out so far.

Saw this one for sale at DG on the weekend, size L. Understand that the geometry is a bit relaxed, could be wrong.

Would also make a fixie as there's provision for a rear brake, but the forks would need to be changed to fit a front brake.

I notice its in pieces, might be your frame with other components to hide the theft.
Death to bike bandits........

The steerer is uncut so it's not likely to be Eric's.
