Bike Thieves Beware!

Bike theft is morally wrong on all too many levels. I got back from a five hour ride today and noticed that my custom steel Waltworks track bike was missing. Actually, I noticed this morning that the side-yard gate was open, and I was glad that my dog hadn't been killed by a car, but I didn't notice my missing bike because I was racing to be on time to a ride.

I loved that bike. It has been my longest-lasting bike to date. I'm pretty sure it was the only track frame built by Walt, so it cannot be mistaken. I just put Campy Record cranks onto it, as well as a new Fizik saddle and Profile bull horns.

Pretty upset about it. It was one-of-a-kind. Built specifically for me and my long legs and long arms. The top tube is longer than anything sold on the market, so whoever rides it, expecting a normal 63cm frame, will find that they have to reach further than usual. I hope they develop permanent back problems.

Please keep a lookout for it. Black frame, Waltworks (yellow font), Campy cranks, Mavic cyclo-cross rims, Ritchey stem, Profile Design TT drop bars, MKS road flats and steel cages, Soma double leather straps, Tekro front brake, wine corks stuffed into the handlebar ends.
