    5k reward! WTF! You could get yourself a brand spank-me-new
    bike for that.

    No [censored]. To the Ebay seller: take the 5k, build an amazing
    new bike for a measly 4k, get a Kryptonite NYChain for $100,
    and spend the leftover money on dinners and movies for your
    girlfriend, who is probably ready to leave you after hearing
    you [censored] about a 5 year old, heavily worn, sporadically
    damaged bike. If you have 5k for a reward for THAT bike, you
    have 5k to make everything better instead.

    But yeah, bike theft sucks. Had my first-ever-bike-I-built-
    myself clipped about 6 months ago (but you didn't see me
    offering a reward of 7-8 times it's value for its
    return, either).

    It's 5K if thief goes to nick - It's pretty safe money !
    Even the 1K for a conviction is about as safe as it gets.
    He's offering just about diddly squat but it probably makes
    him feel better.

    Think about this, the 5k is in British Pounds. In US Dollars
    you are looking at $9,008, according to the Universal
    Currency Converter @
    xe.com. For that kind of cash I would have new bike, my wife
    would have a new bike, and I would have new computer lol.
