Two Mint Cycles 29ers STOLEN from the Handmade Bicycle Show in San Jose
We had two bikes STOLEN out of our booth at the North American Handmade Bicycle Show this weekend in San Jose on the night of March 4th. Any help in finding them would be greatly appreciated. If you see either of these bikes on a trail, at a shop, on someone's car, locked up on the street, or anywhere else PLEASE let us know as soon as you can by either calling us at 480.775.3840 or emailing us at info@mintcycles.com. You can also call the San Jose Police Department and ask for Detective Carter.
We're happy MTBR did manage to take some pics of our bikes before they were jacked though! Here they are:
Singlespeed 29er with a Pace Carbon Fork and a few on-one parts
S3 29er with a Reba and an XT parts kit - as far as we know, the only 29er in existence made from True Temper's superlight S3 steel alloy
Both bikes are for 6-foot-plus folks. They are both tig-welded and may have had the decals peeled off, as the decals were not clearcoated.
Again, ANY help in finding these would be appreciated. We are a small builder and losses like this hit us really hard. Please feel free to repost this anywhere.
Thanks,
christina / mint cycles
