The titus and pivot are very easy to recognize since they are both XXS. I am 4'10" so it should be easy to spot those bikes that small on CL. the jamis is a 15". I'm in San Antonio but you never know where those crap-holes might post them up. Austin is a big market for stolen bikes. i'll even pay the ba$tards for my own bikes $1000 ea for the pivot and titus. Keep your eyes out!

Maybe set up a Google Alert: http://www.google.com/alerts

using this as the search term, which will hit all of craigslist:

jamis OR titus OR pivot site:craigslist.com

Good luck.

That's an interesting feature. I did not know google allowed you to do that. Seems pretty powerful, but I could see the possibility of a ton of alerts if you aren't careful with your criteria.

Sorry about your bikes (Dina). I hope they turn up.

You can specify the frequency of the alerts (eg. daily), and turn it off any time you like.

I'd set the frequency to 'as it happens' in a situation like this, though.

I'm beginning to think we should install Sharia law when it comes to bike thieves.

Bury them up to their necks in the middle of the CP parking area, and take turns riding over their heads?

Well, we could practice our bunny hops. I usually get my tires at least ear high when I attempt this.

Wow, that completely sucks. Sorry to hear.

That really sucks.

Those bikes are too easy to spot for them to be sold easily. They will either hold them a while before they sell them or they will try to sell them in a different location/city.

That Google alert looks like it would be VERY helpful.

Or, you know, a third possibility is that they take them out to Pace Bend to ride 'em, right when several truckloads of Mojos happen to show up.

I know, dream scenario ...

You are right. The dream scenario will never happen.

Wookie - I've been put out of business by thieves. Twice. I don't need - or want - weapons. Much too fast.

Come on Pangster -

I keep hoping for a post that bikes have been recovered and criminal has been executed. Woops, I mean arrested...

If you haven't already, I'd shoot Pivot an e-mail regarding your Pivot. They're small enough that they might, just might, put something on the website.
