Again, sorry to hear what happened. Bike theft really sucks.

You could manually trawl gumtree and ebay to see who's offloading 2nd hand bikes, though www.bikeshd.com (or co.uk) has automated the process. I also suggest posting on the stolen bikes board on the cyclechat.net and bikeradar.com forums.

Lastly, Brick Lane is notorious for people selling stolen bikes, but be careful. Read the tips on  how to deal with it on the aforementioned forums.

Good luck!

No appearance on bikeshd.co.uk yet, though looking at a few examples of my bike which have appeared on ebay, can go for between 200-350.

Also registered on bike revolution after a reponse to a few tweets.

Obviously reported to police, however still waiting to give them a full report, when they call me back.

I applaud them, looks like they're doing a great job Smile

It was a trek 1000, looked something like this.
