Unfortunate that this has to be the first post...
I've just been burgled and amongst the items stolen was my bike, which was just inside the front door.
Location, Portsmouth, Hampshire
Time Thursday 27th November, about 1am
Newly built this year :
On-One Whippet Frame, red and white
Rock Shox Reba RL Solo fork
Shimano XT Groupset, excluding brakes. Gear idicator removed from the front shifter to accommodate the Pushloc
Miche XM 40.29 MTB Wheels (red hubs) with road tyres
The wheels are an odd fit as they are 29” wheels on a 26” bike and make it look a little odd compared to most mountain bikes. This was my winter road set up.
Tektro Auriga Comp brakes. These are much older than the rest of the bike
The brake cables were red and have faded to pink. There is a “RaceFace” sticker on the chain stay which is red to match the bike.
Crank Bros Cobalt 3 Seat Post
RaceFace XC short Stem
WTB saddle which is off an older bike and very warn by comparison to the rest of the bike.
Cheers, Andy.
Don't see many of those round these parts. I'm just outside Pompey, but will keep em peeled.
Good luck!
Though I'm not sure it's relevant*, which bit of Portsmouth ?
*guessing this'll not be one they'll ride round on as it's VERY conspicuous
I’ll keep an eye out for you, also my wife will be on the look out when she goes round the car boots on Sunday.
Shouldn’t be hard to miss if still in one piece 🙁
I'm in Southsea, but agree, I think it's likely to have had a few miles put on it to get it out of the city.
Peeled eye's are appreciated!
V distinctive. I'll keep an eye out.
Police found it - email me alex_setchell at hotmail dot com
On its way back to rightful owner!
Just to report that this is one Whippet that has run home!
The police have fortunately recovered the bike and are in the process of ensuring the thief spends a few nights at her Majesties pleasure 🙂
A bit of help from "madeupname" in the process which is much appreciated.
Yay !
did they tell you how far away it was found ?
Ace news.

I do like a happy ending. I still miss the three bikes that were taken from me six years ago! 🙁
did they tell you how far away it was found ?
Yep, within the city... dumbass.
