Disappeared from my basement on Sycamore Rd. within the last two weeks. The bike is a canary yellow, alluminum Giant ATX 890 mountain bike, early 2000 model. Black Rock Shox Psylo forks. Black handlebars with red bar ends. Suspension seat post. Cosmic Charlie's sticker on the left chainstay. This is a good looking, high end mountain bike in very good condition. I wish I could figure out how to post a picture. Since someone actually came into by building to steal this, I'm taking it very personally. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Nate

Here is some additional info. The Giant decal is blue and the frame is a signature series, John Tomac I believe. Also, the previous owner painted the cranks red. I scraped off the paint on the front but it is still red on the backside. That would be a dead giveaway.
Thanks again.

I found it for sale on Ebay all the way down in Boynton Beach Fl. I contacted the seller and explained the situation, that I have a police report, pictures, and the guy that sold it to me, who happens to be a cop. The guy said he bought it on Craigslist (not sure in what state, I wasn't asking too many questions.) Anyway, he said he would be glad to send it back to me. Only asked that I reimburse him for shipping AFTER I got the bike back. It showed up today, unbelieveable!
