Stolen Santa Cruz Bullit

rapidresto

Stolen from Telford Shropshire overnight (before 5am) on Thursday 22nd August 2013.

Black 2005 Santa Cruz Bullit - Frame size is small so has a straight top tube.

Completely custom build included

Marzocchi Bomber Z1 SL's in black, 20mm bolt through axle
Fox DHX 5.0 with the Ti spring
Hope Headset in gold
Hope Seat Clamp in gold
Hope 4 pot front disc brake with floating rotor
Hope mini rear disc brake (black and gold)
XT front THUMBSHIFTER!
xt rear pod shifter
Miss matched hope brake levers
Retro Kona grips
Shimano Saint double chainset
Shimano XT front & rear mechs
XT Cassette
Easton Carbon Fibre handlebars
Race Face Carbon Fibre Seatpost
Charge Spoon tan saddle
Can't remember the wheel specs but it was black hub/rim/spoke combo!
Tioga Factory DH front and rear tyres

Not a bike that is often seen and it's almost impossible that one will have been built to the same spec. The Grips are a bit of a rarity, only ever fitted to early Kona Stinky's and the like, the glow in the dark ones!

Insurance have refused to pay out on it, so i'm massively at a loss, the thieves may not know what they have as they targeted a few local garages / sheds taking a number of items, but left my equally valuable XC cannondale, favouring the santa cruz - probably because it just looked more expensive.

Reward for the recovery or info leading to the recovery!

Saw one of these in Lilleshall in Shropshire the other day (a few miles outside telford) Being ridden by a lad about 16-17, i didnt get a proper look but i though it was an expensive bike for a young lad.
