Bad news man... Sorry to hear about your loss. Had my 575 and arc and a load of spares nicked from a double locked shed, plus bikes were locked with two BIG chains too. Seems theres not a lot you can do to stop the thieves. Gets on my wick when people say 'oh i keep mine indoors', they dont seem to get that weve probably been specifically targetted, and houses are just as easy to get into to people who are that tooled up.

Couple of mates have had high value bikes nicked over the last couple of months too, yetis amongst them... The paranoid side of me wonders if theres someone really organised behind all this, its seems almost too coincidental...

Dont let the bastards get you down...

OMG - you do not want to know what I would do to a scum who stole any of my bikes....
The only good thing in this sad situation is that you were insured. M&S seem to be a good insurer so I hope they do they job and you get back to riding soon.

My mate suggested me to get two sound alarms (in addition to any other form of protection): one mega loud that makes the whole neighbourhood hear it, and a silent one, out of sight, connected to a received by your bed. Surely there is an inherent danger when facing a thief but a baseball bat (or a metal one) can make your argument stronger.

I second what bias said - do not ler the bastards get you down.
