**STOLEN** Steve Peat and Sam Hill's WC Bikes

check rotor bolts on sundays.....i'm pretty sure only team guys are running 3 bolts per wheel.... silly weight saving pros. sucks to hear about all those pro bikes getting lifted.
O.K. - I just posted the Kathy Pruitt bike and equipment theft today.
Something really needs to be done about this. Can Transcend or Ridemonkey, or whoever is the local top-dog send a letter and links to these threads to the staff at Whistler Bike Park?
Maybe Todd and Dante could help out at the Iron horse end of things?
Or am I not understanding this situation correctly? The thefts of Peaty's Sam's and Kathy's rides were from the parking lots of private hotels located off the mountain, or on the mountain and its properties?

Well, I saw Sam Hill in the line up yesterday pretty much rockin another sunday (must be his back up bike).
Oh yeah, there were so many sundays on the mountain yesterday. It seems like every 5th rider that we came across was riding a sunday.

Look for the sunday with only two bolts in bar clamp on his stem... by the way that's taking weight saving to the extreme. Surely some short ti bolts would be just as light?
if you are refering to the picture above your post, look closely...that was at the Sugar Naty, he was running 2 ti and 2 steel bolts. still some pretty interesting weight saving techniquesjon-boy said:
There's a picture in dirt with just two bolts..... that's a risk I wouldn't like to take.
ya but we r talking about sam hill...see sam hill thread....he's just keeping some weight on there to make the competition less pathetic, usually he uses none.jon-boy said:

I have a solution if any interested bike companys want to pitch in and buy me (and my bike) a ticket to whistler next year I will stay in a fenced in area w/every team trailor and gaurd all night and if they dont want to pay for my bike to get out there I will be looking for a med. bottlerocket as soon as I touch downq. I offer my services free of charge but I do accept swag of any kind. I'll chek my PM tonight for any interested company.

It would seem to me with bike prices going from a minium of $1000 for a cheapy, up to $6,500, you'd think that someone would put out a water proof LOJACK type micro chip that you could hide up inside your bike frame via sticky tape that would locate your bike when stolen. They have it for pets!
Is there such a thing?
I'll help if needed. Do they allow assualt rifles in Canada?
irate2:
whoever stole them must be an idiot, arent pros exclusive to product that nobody else gets. those bikes are 1 of a kind:even the parts
