" Hi! I stole this bike and don't know how to describe it when I sell it on Craigslist. Here's a crummy photo that hopefully isn't too identifying."

Most bike manufacturers will write their company name somewhere on the bicycle. Have you tried looking at the bike and have you noticed what looks like CARRARO written in nice big text? It looks like the model name is written there too. Is it Delcaro? I can't really tell as the picture is too low res. You might like to start googling those names first.

BTW, your seatpost is too high. You should've gone for a larger frame size.....
Also, the way to identify your bike is to point at it and say, "THAT's my bike!". I think that maybe somebody will be able to do that if you post this pic in enough forums....

I'm pretty sure it's a "not made for real riding" bike. Better post here:

It's some sort of generic mtn bike of the kind sold by big box stores for $100-250. The name doesn't mean anything, it's one of tens of thousands cranked out by a no-name factory in China to fill a big box store order.

No, that's not how it's done. That would get tossed out of court. The right way to do this is to put a photo of the bike in an array with at least 5 other similar bikes for the OP to pick his out of the lot.

delWalli Martoni. Easily identified by the frame designed for "style" and ignoring well-established principles of engineering.
