Does this strike anyone as suspicious, or is it just me? Also check out the seller's other ads. Maybe I'm just paranoid from having two bikes stolen the past year, or I'm not GumTree savvy, but it just strikes me as odd.

Yes I noticed that, and all with the same contact number.

gumtree ads are always suspicious, it's the thieves' paradise

when i was trying to trace my stolen marin, the same scumbag was advertising it and six other bikes on gumtree, one payg mobile number, multiple fake names, mine was already sold, others were still available, gave the info to police and gumtree...

police - we don't have time
gumtree - we don't do anything unless the police tell us
