UPDATE: According to Brian at Twenty20, the mountain bike was recovered, and the person who was caught with the bike is a potential lead to locating the other missing bike. Stay tuned! (4:45pm 5/18/15)
Bike burglars struck again in Hampden over the weekend. Early Sunday morning, Twenty20 Cycling Co. reported a pair of bikes were stolen from its shop on The Avenue.
The bikes are valued at nearly $10,000 combined. A 2014 Specialized Turbo S (MSRP: $6,000) and a 2012 2012 Specialized Epic FSR Comp (MSRP: $3,300), were both stolen. The burglars apparently broke the glass in the store’s front window.
“If you see these bikes out on the streets, call the police immediately,” a notice said. “Both bikes are very rare and recognizable.”
The shop opened for business on Sunday despite the thefts.
The burglary followed a separate recent incident at Joes’ Bike Shop on Falls Road. The burglars in that case were caught on camera.
