Trek 4300 Rigid silver-blue with mix-hybrid wheels. The bike was brand new, immaculate. Has two exension handlerbar stems (black, I had to cut the handlebar cover to adapt it) and front-rear mud guards. It has a tiny dent on the superior-front aspect of the frame. It has infrared speed counter bracket on the handlebar.
My pretty, cute bike was locked to a rack with very strong locks (locking the front and back wheels and the frame). Everything was gone, no sign of any debris or even the locks! And my only way of commuting across London. I am still paying for it! It got stolen in front of the Waterstones, Torrington Place at around 7-9pm. I am devastated. I am a student and unemployed, so this means a lot of trouble to me. I do not have much money but would pay some reward if found. [photo]

Shimano XT Derallieur and new rear chain set/cogs. Aluminium bars with grip shift gear levers. Sugino crank shaft. New Continental Slick tyres. Disinguishing marks include a yellow sticker halfway down the frame stem with a Japanese symbol and a few small Chinese characters (I bought the bike in Japan). The headset has a motif on it reading "All Work And No Play Is No Good At All". For the record, I'd like to crucify whoever stole my prized possession.
