There's a bike on eBay if you look up 'black mountain bike full of shimano bits' it ends in 9 hours.
Something looks dodgy about it, starting with the front brake(s)

Wrong image? Dark blue with orange lettering. Surely even a tea leaf would know it's worth more.

He's taken it down again, but it's a blue Ragley Mmmbop with white Fox forks, white rims and saddle, a gold stem (poss Hope), silver cranks and what look like Shimano DX flat pedals. Henleaze area.

The advert seems to be getting taken down and then put back up later. Please don't contact the seller directly, he may get spooked and dispose of the bike. I've passed on the details from the advert, so if there's a matching theft report it can probably be taken further.

So Southmead then? The known hub (pun intended) of Bristol bike theft.

Pic of the bike.

As someone on FB has pointed out, there may not even be a real bike at the address, it could just be someone trying it on. Be good to know who owns it regardless.
