Giant is asking for the vigilance of these bikes coming into the market. Anyone with information, please contact the Giant team on 0800 015 9110 or email sales@giant-bicycles.co.uk.
There appears to be a rise in organised theft amongst the cycling community as this news follows the incident that took place in January where a truck driver was gassed and Shimano parts for the production of 10,000 bicycles were stolen from a motorway rest area in Germany.
