Hey mike and brian, this might be good news - someone on another forum (tetongravity.com) just contacted me about the rotec:

Hi I was wondering if your buddy was trying to sell that rotec, as some dude tried to sell that bike to me today in boulder,I did a search for it as I had not seen a rotec hardtail since 1999 and this looked like the new style RL9 front section
it had black dirtjumpers and a tioga rear rim

just wondered if it was stolen as the guy seemed scetchy.

I sent him to this page and asked him to call you as well.

Alright, so I got the frame, fork ,stem, bars and rear wheel back today.

This stuff was sold last week to Tim in Colorado Springs off a craigs list post, after he brought the stuff home he went online to learn more about the "old" rotec he just got. This is how the theif was describing it. He then saw this post and contacted me on Sunday. I just met him today in Denver and got this stuff back. I'm really stoked to get the frame back, that was the important thing. At the same time I 'm still fricken pissed about the stuff that was stripped and still missing
here is what I didn't recover and the retail replacement costs
$50 Sram Shifter (Shimano derailer compatible)
$20 Odi lock on’s
$450 Magura Luise FR Break set
$30 FSA big fat pig head set
$260 Front Wheel, DT Swiss Hub, Mavic 321 Hoop, 14 gauge spokes, tube,
Maxis Holy Roller & scewer.
$10 Cable & Housing
$50 Seat
$50 Maxis Larsen & Tube
$175 Truvativ Hussfelt Cranks
$120 E-Thirteen Bashgaurd
$20 E-Thirteen 38 tooth chainring
$40 Sram PC95 Chain
$40 Bullet Proof Flat Pedals
$70 Shimano Ultegra Rear Derailer

=$1385 Total
I'm still just as pissed as I was befor, and I still really want to find this kid, it sucks to see the bike the way it is now.

May all theifs catch the HIV
