It is a distinctive orange mountain bike with ‘Cube’ written on it. Gardaí are appealing for witnesses to the theft or if they see the bike to contact them at Tralee Garda Station on 066-7102300.
Gardaí advise cyclists to lock the bike to an immovable object in a well-lit area and to take a photo of the bike with the serial number, as gardai can’t return the bicycle to owners if the serial number isn’t recorded.
