“It’s a crime that may seem quite low level but it has an impact on the individual - some of these bikes are worth up to ￡2,000 and so can be a great loss to a cyclist.
“We continue to do everything we can to trace the people believed to be involved in this type of crime - including patrolling those areas where we know offences taken place and those people we know are involved in this type of crime,” she added.
She explained that police are keeping an eye on websites such as Gumtree in the hope of spotting stolen bikes that have been put up for sale, as well as identifying people who regularly sell bicycles online.
