Specialized Sirrus

What happened

The bike was locked up to a fence outside my building door, within a locked, fenced yard. A communal building key would have been required to get in, or else the thief would have had to scale a fairly tall wrought iron fence to get access to the bike. My boyfriend saw the bike when he locked up his own bike next to it at 3:00 a.m., and it was gone at 8:50 a.m. when I left the building. Several other bikes were in the same area - perhaps they were using U-Locks (which my boyfriend did) - and were untouched.

Condition

Very good condition, but with some dirty smudges on the frame. Very recently tuned up, and back tube replaced. There was a yellow sticker on the crossbar indicating a previous residence "3520 N. Lake Shore Dr.". Additionally there was a black plastic lock holder attached to the handlebars, but the actual arm to hold the lock was broken off, so mostly there's just a broken black plastic piece attached to the handlebars.
