Stolen Blue Competition Cycles XC hardtail (Atlanta, GA)

My Blue XC hardtail was stolen off my locked Thule bike rack while parked at work today (Northlake Pkwy and 285).

Details:

Blue Competition Cycles XC mountain bike
- M/L frame size
- Black/white/gold
- Shimano LX components
- FOX F100 RLC
- Shimano SPD pedals (not pictured)
- Mavic wheels
- Dury grips
- 1.5 " Maxxis Medusa tires (not pictured)
- Stock Blue Competition Cycles saddle
- 3T carbon seat post (not pictured)

If you could keep an eye out, I would greatly appreciate it. If you have any information, please contact me.

Thanks in advance.

Clay Benoit

Sorry to hear the sad news Clay.
Have you contacted all the bike shops in the Northlake area? That's where most thieves try first to unload a bike.
We see a few "hot" bikes in our shop occasionally but never know who to contact. The asking price is always a giveaway.

Bike recovered!

Ron, thanks for the reply.

The Gwinnett County PD found my bike on Saturday and made arrests. The bike, from what I can tell, is in great shape with the exception of some scratches from tossing it in a vehicle. They didn't ride the bike...or should I say weren't able to ride the bike. The brainiacs removed the front wheel, squeezed the front disc brake, and consequently locked up the caliper. Doh!

I am very lucky. Thule T2 owners...double lock the rack with a chain lock. Lesson learned.
