Monday, Jose Alcala arrived in Colorado Springs to drive to the next event on the SRAM Neutral Race Support calendar. But much to his dismay, the Sprinter van he was scheduled to drive had been emptied while it sat parked at the Holiday Inn Express on Commerce Drive in Colorado Springs.

. In an act particularly despicable to this editor, the criminals also stole the toolbox of one of SRAM’s mechanics.

Please be on the lookout for the following bikes:

Ibis Mojo SL – Small – White – X0 components

Ibis Mojo SL – Large – Carbon – X0 components

Intense Tracer 29 – Large – Silver – X7 components

Intense Tracer 29 – Medium – Green – X0 components

Niner EMD Hardtail – Medium – Silver – X0 components

Specialized Enduro – Large – Brown – X0 components

Specialized Stumpy 29 Hardtail – Large – White/Red – X0 components

Turner Flux – Small – Red – XX components

Also keep your eyes peeled for a Platt 8″ toolbox with wing pallets and cork lined dividers in bottom. There are no stickers on the outside.

If you see any of these bikes or the toolbox, please contact local authorities immediately. Follow any updates on twitter @SRAMNRS.
