Truck heist of $11.5m in Shimano parts.
Czech bike producer suffers heist valued at €10 million.
Truck driver rendered unconscious, cargo bay emptied of Shimano parts in targeted highway theft.
Now if I could only find their web site with their "new stock" of XTR derailleurs available.

We live in a world where bike parts have become a target of pirates like Drugs. Fuck covid.

Silver lining, one less e-bike manufacturing putting shit out there? Joking of course.
I've been watching too much S4 of Ozark, b/c I wonder if this was an inside the industry job and parts end up sprinkled onto Specialized/Trek/whatever. Just substitute the Shaw CEO for Mike Sinyard

Truck heist of $11.5m in Shimano parts.
I need this story to involve tuner cars/bikes being used in the heist. Maybe a zip line/harpoon thingie.
“I live life one 12 speed driveline at a time”
OR, Maybe a ‘Floyd Landis and the Livestrong Kid’ kinda deal?
Sad tho. Damn.

Calling bullshit on the driver being "gassed". The proper term is most likely "bribed", but drunk or asleep are also 100x more likely than someone correctly administering an inhaled sedative to a truck driver.

I don't know about the cheap part, but at least they won't be counterfeit. Originally Posted by EWG
