Just had my mountain bike stolen from Gosforth, Newcastle.

2008, 20" frame, in Apple Green, with a disco laquer.
Wheels - Hope ProII hubs laced to ZTR 355's with Dt revolutions and alloy niples. All Black.
Forks - Magura Thor - White
Headset - FSA orbit Extreme pro.
Stem and Bar - RF Atlas, and next 3/4.
Brakes - Magura Louise BAT's with 180mm Marta SL rotors.
FSA afterburner chainset, Xt cassette, and PC971 chain.
Sram X9 shifters and rear mech, with an XTR front.
Tune inline seatpost with a Green Prologo Vertigo Max saddle.
Continental tyres.

Easy to recognise as it is big and green with a green saddle. Front brake lever is held on with 3 white zip ties.

Please let me know if you see it anywhere.

Thanks.

It got taken sometime last night (22/7/10)

I saw there is a 18" frame on ebay at the moment, but it has been listed for a few days.

Mine was a 20" covered in helicopter tape. It had a "Pedal Damm it" sticker on the top tube.
 
Whoever nicked this might not know just how high end it is, especially if they stole it on impulse. Some of those parts are pretty expensive so I dont think it will be hard to spot when they list them for sale.

You can setup a saved search on ebay and it will email you every new listing matching your spec. They might list it incorrectly though, so be broad with it.

PS. Attending a few car boot sales this weekend might also work, plus a call to the organisers asking them to keep an eye out for it. The police also attend them these days, plain clothes.
