Stolen Uni

[akchase]

I know it's a long shot, but recently my beloved Zombie Hunter Nimbus was stolen along with a friends 24" Nimbus. If you come across any of the parts or uni as a whole please send me a message.



26" Nimbus Frame, Kris Holm Fusion Freeride, Kris Holm carbon seatpost, Kris Holm 165mm cranks, Kris Holm hub. Magura HS11 brakes. Stickers say "Wolverines" and "Unicycle Bastards" as well as a now expired "Zombie Hunting Permit"

Any particular part of the world you're in?

I can't believe I forgot that, I also play rugby and I had a concussion yesterday so my thinker doesn't work so good. I live in Santa Barbara California where it was stolen from.

You can do what I did, and contact all the local bike shops to have them keep an eye out for "unusual" unicycles. That's how I got mine back. Meanwhile, contact all the other unicyclists you know about, and also let them know about the "hot" unicycles. If they get offered one for sale, a sting operation can be arranged.

Good luck! Unicycles like those are still rare, so they do have a chance of finding their way back to you.

Of course, keep an eye on craigslist too.

Care to share the circumstances of how they were stolen?

[akchase]

I left the uni attached to the bike rack at my College (small christian school away from the city) for a short time and when I came back it was gone along with my friends uni which was in a different location, All of the bikes that were locked there just fine. And then I was sad

[johnfoss]

So when you say 'attached' you don't mean with a lock, right?


Effing thieves. They'll take anything that isn't nailed down.

[asthian]

oh man, That's awful!
I hope you end up finding it.

[akchase]

Probably won't, I guess at least it frees up some room and someone else gets introduced to the wonderful sport

[Champy]

dudethats the spirit, i just got my first uny and i love it, hope you find it, and dont be such a nice person the bastard who stole it deservs ta fall and brake its whole body

Ouch man, well you can look at your pawn shops, bike shops, and keep a watchful eye on craigslist... I live a couple horus from ya, il keep an eye out, but ya your best bet is to look for the boso trying to sell it on craiglist.

Oh um, you might search different combos of words on craigslist other than unicycle. Like monocycle, or unibike, or 1 wheeled bike, normal people call unicycles funny things.

Hey, I'm not normal, I'm friggin weird and I accept it haha.


Chase, I have been checking craigslist, since I am always looking for good deals, but haven't even seen components show up yet, just lots of sun and schwinn unicycles.
