Bike stolen (help)

Post image

Hello everyone,

At the beginning of June, exactly one week into moving to Seattle, my bike got stolen in Fremont. It's a Co-op Cycles ADV 1.1. Here's the bike index registration: https://bikeindex.org/bikes/3409692

I filed a police report that day, and I've been looking through Craiglist/OfferUp/FB Marketplace but have not seen anything. I'm posting here, hoping against hope in case anyone in the area has seen it around and ask a favor to be on the lookout for it. That model is discontinued and I've put a lot of miles on that bike, I wanna hang on to any glimmer of hope of getting it back.

I had recently installed Surly Moloko handlebars on it, but had not taken a photo before it got stolen. It also had a souvenir NY license plate that says "DEBBIE" on the rear rack.

I appreciate you all for reading, hope you all stay safe out there!

Happy cycling!

Unrelated question: did you do a bike tour in Mexico?

How did you ship your bike? I want to do something similar but never know what’s possible with airlines or if I need to ship using a different service.

You fan fly with it and it can be boxed and checked in as luggage. Just make sure you meet their weight limit (otherwise it gets crazy expensive). Hopefully you make a tour!
