You have my sincere condolences. This is truly a beautiful bicycle to lose. The Airnimal is the highest-end folding road bike currently on the market.

Folks. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Do not under any circumstances commute with a bicycle that costs more than $700.00 unless you can keep it indoors. The commuter bike in the picture is worth over $1,100.00 USD. When you add the additional components, this bike is easly worth over $1,500.00 USD!

I'm afraid you'll never see this bike again. I can assure you the police are not looking for it as they would for a stolen automobile.

I would never park this kind of bike outside on the street even with 2 Kryptonite chains! The cycle is very expensive and is similar to leaving a Cannondale R1000 attached to bike rack.

Maybe you can tell us how this bike was stolen so others can learn.

a. What kind of locks did you use? Did you even use a lock?
b. Was it stolen at night or during the day?
c. Was it stolen near a university or college campus?
d. Where did you attach the bike to? (bike rack, pole)
e. How long did you leave the bike unattended?
