Gotta love it when a bike thief gets his just deserts. Especially since so few thieves are actually caught.

Check this out. I work for a bike company and we have a customer who had his 7" travel full suspension mountain bike ripped. So it's a year later and he calls us and says that he found the frame on Craigslist in San Jose (we're in Calif.). The customer is like 6'7" and the frame is huge. He calls the guy and then drives to San Jose to look at the frame. Not only is the frame huge but it's also orange and a one-off. He checks it out and yep his frame. He then calls the fine folks at SJPD and has the guy busted. The police also found other bikes, motorcycles, stereos, cameras, etc. all hot. To add insult to injury he takes a few pics of the thief getting cuffed and emails them to us. The dude is my hero.
