Thieves broke into the gallery where Hotlines have been holding their London show and stole thousands of pounds worth of bikes early this morning.
They took a prototype Nuke Proof downhill bike (more on this later today), top-end Lapierre mountain bikes including the new DH Team, a Ghost SE 5000 hardtail and Lynskey Helix titanium road frame.
The bikes were taken at around 3.30am from the Dray Walk Gallery, just off Brick Lane. They're easily recognised – see below for details – and Hotlines are offering a reward for information leading to their retrieval. Email info@hotlines-uk.com or call 0131 319 1444.

Nuke Proof Scalp downhill bike (yellow) – Marzocchi 888 fork with green anodised stanchions and white lowers, Nuke Proof finishing kit
