I bought the bike in 1999 so it has a few scratches here and there, but I just had a tune up last May. The cassette and chain were replaced. There is also some red and black graphics painted on the bike, but overall it is silver colored (aluminum frame). The bottom side of the seat is a faded red (so it looks a bit orange now).

Incident Description:
I went to class in UIC's Art and Architecture building off of Harrison Street. I arrived there at 1pm and didn't leave the building till 6:40pm. I locked my bike up to a metal railing right outside the main entrance and locked the two wheels, chain, frame and seat with Masterlock's Python lock. The lock was cut and left about 5 feet away near the handicap ramp. I had last seen my bike when I finished locking it up around 1:05pm that day so anytime between then and 6:40pm is when it could of been stolen.
