I’ve just gotten word of yet another set of bikes stolen from a garage, this time in Venice.
John Montgomery reports he had three bikes stolen overnight, even though they were locked to the wall.
On October 29th, three bikes were stolen out of my garage. They were actually locked to rings on the wall — and the cuts were clean so it looks like some bike thief pros. The CAADX was less than a week old (and I was really loving it).
Two of the bikes are pictured here, along with a reference photo of the Dolce Apex. I’d appreciate any heads up if you happen to come across one of them on the market. You can reach me via email: johnmont (at) fxguide.com
Details as to the makes/models:
56cm Scott CR1 Team (Black & Red) with HED JET 4 Wheels
(Serial Number TBD — docs are back in Chicago)
51cm Cannondale CAADX 105 (Black and White)
Serial Number EM33381
50cm Specialized Dolce Apex (White & Green)
Serial Number WSBC 602 059 086F
Keep your eyes open and contact the LAPD Pacific Division if you see something matching these descriptions for sale anywhere, and email John at the address above.

Thanks so much Gary (and Ted) — I really and truly appreciate it. That is definitely close to a dead ringer for my bike, but I had Shimano components….and those wheels are actually the ones that come with the original bike.
So I doubt it’s mine, but I’m looking at the pictures in more detail.
Honestly — thanks so mcuh.
