Hi. My lovely ebike with a basket on the front was stolen sometime between 8am- 3:40pm today from outside the University of Sheffield Jessop West building. Looks like they used an angle grinder on the d-lock and cable lock! It is quite rare as I don't think orbea sold many, even though they are the best commuting bike. It's blue, big basket, brooks saddle, Shimano xt dual sided peddles. Least they don't have the little screen that makes it all work.

Arseholes, I like those too.

There's a website called stolen-bikes.co.uk that has a tool to trawl various site where it may turn up for sale. Worth keeping an eye on, especially for something a bit out of the ordinary.

Bastards. Am local so will keep an eye out for anyone looking out of place on one. As you say, rare enough to be noticed.

I'll keep an eye out, quite distinctive.

Gutted for you. Lots of it about and it's only going to get worse sadly over the next year.
