I'm just saying... some things should have never gone out of style.

Best of luck to the OP for a safe return of that fantastic bike

I am very sorry for this bike being stolen. Let's hope the thieves try to sell it the way the stole it and it gets recovered unharmed.

@Mercian , Adrian take a look at the saddle on this one. Looks like there is a lower imprint just lower and after the U.S.A.

Hi @New Mexico Brant

Yes,I think it's the word MADE (certainly *ADE)

Best Regards,

Adrian

Im assuming this is white collar upper class collector crime but perhaps if it is a blue collar person non collector who stole it maybe they are advertising a dummy bike on a selling platform to get a buyer. ‘ oh sorry that bike is sold but I’m about to list this one’ I’m sure everyone asks on the reg ‘hey any other bikes for sale any condition’ maybe everyone do so with more enthusiasm this winter you never know. It only takes one mistake on them. Good luck in your (our) search.

It is hard to believe this is a "white collar" crime offense. It would be easier to steal a Van Gogh or other painting with much less risk and greater rewards.

Early van Gogh Painting Stolen From Dutch Museum (Published 2020)

“The Parsonage Garden at Nuenen in Spring” was the only thing missing after a heist near Amsterdam. Whoever was behind the theft made the move on the artist’s birthday, knowingly or not.

More likely dumb tweekers, maybe the same guys who hit Tom Gitz several years ago?

Do any CABERS have good pictures of this bicycle that can get posted to the Davis thread? It would be great if we could study it better.
