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.
