Hangin's too good for 'em


My next door neighbor had his bikes stolen last night. He's leaving for Seattle, more or less permanently, this Friday. Here's his CL ad... http://madison.craigslist.org/bik/1781019892.html
Saturday I installed an Octalink Dura Ace crankset for him on the C'dale so there's a VAR lockring tool mark fresh on the bb shell. Otherwise it had older Look Carbon pedals, Ultegra drive train, 105 brakes (blue anodized) and Mavic 501 hubs with 6 speed freewheel on Open 4CD rims. The stem was a pos aluminum but the top had concrete impressions/scratches from a previous owner sitting upside down on the sidewalk too much. The Fuji had Campy high flanges and basic rims. The Condor saddle is on MY Nuovo Record pillar which I gave to him as a gift. The remainder of the parts are solid Campy copys. The pecker head who stole it this morning had some balls to open his garage. Feel free to levy street justice or call me at 608-338-9730 and I'll help, or at the very least definitively ID them since Matt is moving away. I've worked on both of these bike and helped Matt learn to take care of them, so I know them.
Seriously, call me if you have a potential recovery. If they are recovered I can have them delivered to him this summer. Thanks Feel free to impose street justice.

Thanks friend!! The campy high-flange track hub is the real killer. Ouch.
