Incident Description: 
Bike was stolen from a locked basement. Thief(ves) broke window to enter basement, took two bikes (other red, Redline single speed, in separate report) and exited through the back door. We could actually see the wheel marks in the dirt outside as they were wheeled away. Nothing else was taken, even though there was nice camping gear right next to bikes, so perhaps intended to use rather than sell bikes.

I think that someone who had access to the building may have taken it. I imagine that it was sold or pawned or something of that sort right after it was taken. Its really hard to say considering I didn't lock it. I can imagine many different types of people taking it.

Unlike other Kilo TT's it is completely chrome, no markings whatsoever to it's make/model, but basically is a super shiny silver track frame/bike. All black seat (unlike in picture), black taped drop bars, black toeclips and straps. I only had the front brake installed. It is not built of the best components so hoping it isn't being sold in parts... and if is being ridden around, it is very noticeable.

Incident Description: 
I locked my bike on a street sign I usually don't use- I either use one closer or most of the time bring it upstairs with me. I figured I was leaving for work at 5:30 AM, it would be ok... but it was gone when I left for work. It was kind of under a street light, so I'm sure it stood out. I'm assuming it was just lifted up and over the street sign pole- I'm kicking myself for ever using it in the first place.

Went into Chase Bank at approx. 2:45pm, broad daylight, business district street with many passing pedestrians and cars. Was inside 10 minutes max, when I returned to the sign to which I had cabled the bike, my cable was cut and bike was gone. Oddly a silver aluminum "Magna" dual-suspension mountain bike that was not there when I locked my bike was left leaning against the newspaper vending machines only 3 feet from where my bike had been stolen. Police and I suspect the thief "traded up." The silver Magna--which was brand new, complete with store sticker and chain that still had the original factory grease on it--was taken by the Oak Park Police Department. If the Magna is yours call Oak Park Police to recover.

U070610
Size:

Color: 
all black with white details and lettering
Condition of Bicycle / Distinguishing Features: 
This bike is a 2010 Cannondale CX9 CAAD9 Cyclocross bike size 52cm. It is one year 4 months old (bought it in November 2009), it looks new with very few signs of wear, no significant scratches or dents or otherwise odd nuances (the brake pads are severely worn down, and there was a lot of winter dirt and grime on it when it was stolen). It is all black with white details and lettering. I have built it with a custom parts pick, it is not and off-the-shelf bike. Its distinguishing parts and features are; Easton carbon-fiber fork painted to match bike, a black Arione Fizik saddle, carbon-fiber Tru-Vativ seatpost, RaceFace Revolution bar, Easton EA70 stem, Avid Shorty's (Cyclocross Canti's), Sram Red, Force, & Rival drivetrain > 10speed, handbuilt wheels (by me) > silver Mavic OpenPros with 105 hubs > 32 hole, black SKS full fenders, Conti 700X28 Gatorskin tires, the front skewer is a PitLock locking skewer, the headset spacers are on the top of the stem, and old school SR Sakae Low Fat MTB pedals (the bronze ones, way broken in). Last but not least it has a little rubber gasket that I placed between the bottom side of the headtube and the fork crown to seal off the lower bearings in the headset, which is very discreet. In my opinion this is a very very nice Cyclocross bike turned heavy-winter commuter style bike.

Incident Description: 
I locked up at 5.30pm on March 24th on the south west side of Milwaukee. It was locked up about ten feet northwest of the entrance to Hairitics Salon. Ten feet north of Hairitics is a closed business store front. I locked up the rear wheel and frame to a sign for paying the parking meter (one of the new paybox signs that the new meter boxes need). I did not lock up the front wheel because it has a Pitlock locking skewer, which doesn't "require" a lock on its own. I left from my appointment at 7pm and the bike and lock were gone. It was an older style Kryptonite U-Lock.

After the moment of bewilderment, was struck with a punch to the gut as I realized it was gone... It was a cable lock with a masterlock combo. I new it wasn't the best lock which is why I don't leave it outside normally...pretty sure someone had bolt cutters and swiped the bike after a quick snip. bummer
