from my home in west hollywood yesterday.

Trek 5000 TCT with triple chainring ultegra/105 gruppo. Bontrager cranks, Dura-Ace/Mavic Open Pro 32 spoke wheels. Bar has flat tops.

Surly Steamroller, stock except for the seatpost which I think is currently a black easton, but couldn't be sure. Also, the previous owner put pink handlebar tape on it (it's a west hollywood bike, what can I say?).

Both bikes have shimano mountain spd pedals.

The last bike is a 99 GT XCR2000 full suspension with 1.25" road slicks on it. It has clips and straps on cage pedals. Completely stock, including marzocchi bomber fork with 20mm quick release axle.

All bike are in perfect working order and well maintained.

Please keep an eye out for them. I'll pay a reward to anyone who can give me info that leads to their recovery. I'll pay a bigger reward to anyone who beats the snot out of whoever did it before recovering my bikes.

Sorry, that sucks. Did someone break into your home and stole them? I'll keep an eye out in the SD area.

That blows, I hope you find the dude and hang him by the ballz. I'll keep a lookout on ebay and CL for OC and LA area.

That sucks. :(

Can you give us a little more specific info about how they were taken from you? It just may help others, at least.

Do you have any suspects, or do you think it was a random rip off?
