Mercier Kilo TT - Chrome

What happened

I locked my bike on a street sign I usually don't use- I either use one closer or most of the time bring it upstairs with me. I figured I was leaving for work at 5:30 AM, it would be ok... but it was gone when I left for work. It was kind of under a street light, so I'm sure it stood out. I'm assuming it was just lifted up and over the street sign pole- I'm kicking myself for ever using it in the first place.

Chrome

50cm c-t/30" standover

Condition

This chrome edition Kilo TT was less than a year old and in excellent condition. Unlike other Kilo TT's it is completely chrome, no markings whatsoever to it's make/model, but basically is a super shiny silver track frame/bike. All black seat (unlike in picture), black taped drop bars, black toeclips and straps. I only had the front brake installed. It is not built of the best components so hoping it isn't being sold in parts... and if is being ridden around, it is very noticeable.
