- Description of incident
-
The bike was outside of Gerken's because it needed work done... before it was stolen, the small silver chain cover was bent inwards and the chain could not move along the gears. This is likely still an issue this stolen bike would have. The back wheel was u-locked to the bike seat, so the back wheel is likely off and the bike seat likely damaged. The tires had been recently upgraded so the front tire would be Kevlar lined. It seems that it was possibly posted on the same date it was stolen on OfferUp and sold in the same neighborhood on Wed 4/10 and was likely altered and the original handlebars and pedals may have been taken off and replaced. The first picture posted here is of the possible altered bike after it was stolen. The second picture of the bike is the bike before it was stolen.
