Just checked a really badly put together video and it looks like the v2 has a different mechanism where the ball/end stop of the cable goes into the lever rather than the post so yeah looks like the southpaw is out which is a shame.Closet jockey wheel pimp whore.0 -

You didn't find it on gumtree by any chance did you?
I saw a sketchy looking ad about an "unwanted gift" Solo C which is ridiculous and now it's been removed
Glad you got it back along with your mates anthem, I'm paranoid about my bike and it's easy to see why0 -

We're all hanging on suspense - what happened to them, where were they?Framebuilder

Sorry yesterday was a mad rush and I had to come to New York with work in the evening so not had time to update everyone.
The bikes were both chained up outside the Kings Head pub. Yep I know using a expensive bike to go the pub on blah blah but I was only intending on going to The Church House pub but then later on we ventured to the Kings. Came out at 2.30am to no bikes, we had been popping out every so often to check on them.
Seems like whoever stole them came to there senses the following morning and placed them somewhere not very far from the pub in a semi visible place so they would be found.
Anyhow thanks everyone, we have out bikes back and you learn from your mistakes. I've never felt so angry, or pissed off with myself and the scum that nicked them, at least they did the right thing and neither bike has any damage.0 -
Here it is just as I went to collect it after my mate who had his Anthem nicked too found them both:
I am so so lucky to have it back. Especially as I'd have nothing to put these parts on for a while if it had gone forever:

Glad you got it back.. funny thing is that's not the first time I've heard of the thief returning the bike
I guess the guilt was too much for them
That new CC shock looks awesome, should be a good complement to the Solo0 -
You’re a seriously lucky man, but really happy for you that it's turned up safe and sound.
On another note, the dbinline looks ace and from the little user feedback I've read, they sound bloody awesome. I keep looking at one for my TRc but have managed to resist so far.0 -
Did they have a change of heart, or did they suddenly realise what they'd nicked and how easy it would be to spot as they were trying to shift it...All the gear, no idea and loving the smell of jealousy in the morning.

The 2nd bit i think if i'm honest. I don't believe that they'd feel guilt. More worried about getting caught!0 -
Probably Googled them for value and came across this thread, then thought fuck, how am I going to shift these?
Anyway, glad you got them back Rick!Current:
