Hello, fellow Mountain Bikers!

Usually, we are using our Pinkbike reach to share cool events we are putting on or to give back to the MTB community in some way. This time, however, we are asking for your help to return a brand new bike to its rightful owner.

If you live in or around the Calgary Area please be on the lookout for this 2017 Trek Fuel EX 9.8 29er with Trek's Project One paint job.

Trek Fuel EX 9.8 Project 1 - STOLEN


This bike was a demo bike that was being used by Erik at our Calgary Cycle Pure location and was bought by a customer on the weekend of the 26th of Nov. No sooner had this bike gone to its new home that bike thieves struck. This bike is likely the only one in this configuration in Canada at this point so it will be fairly easy to spot. Component spec listed below:

-21" frame size
-RockShox Pike fork with MRP ramp adjuster upgrade
-Bontrager Line XXX 29er wheels
-RockShox Reverb dropper post
-Ergon carbon railed saddle
-SRAM X0-1 drivetrain
-Shimano XTR trail pedals
-Wolftooth chainring
-Race Face Six C bar
-Blue Ergon grips
-SRAM Guide brakes

Below are some photos of the bike. If anyone has any information regarding this bike please contact us at any of our locations. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
The Calgary Cycle Team / @Calgary-Cycle

 Yup f**kin guy works his ass off for a killer ride he's wanted forever and some dumb sh*t cheats him out of it. I've spread the word threw multiple circles here in Calgary if this looser rides this bike he's in for a rude awakening

 Let this be a reminder for everyone to double check their privacy settings on Strava and Garmin and to rethink their New Bike Day posts on social media. Maybe the next theft won't happen...

 I know a guy that just had his garage cleared out in Calgary. Lost about 10 bikes. Something going on in Calgary. Keep your bikes safe guys.

 When is there going to be tamper proof GPS trackers inside of frames. It seems silly to buy bikes this awesome and not have a way to track them. Ugh, makes me ill and its not even my bike. Hope you get it back.

 Shit I feel the owner got my bike recently stolen even tho just a cheap(ish) commuter but getting your new 10k baby taking right away must really sting.

 Damn, what a disappointment. Seems like someone had some prior information as the bike was gone so fast...Hope it comes back to the rightful owner soon!

 So if we find him, do you want vigilante justice like he got what he deserved or go through the courts...?
