Bike shop out nearly $20,000 after overnight break-in

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 16:55:12 GMT

DENVER (KDVR) -- A bike shop just tucked away off Colfax became the target of thieves last week when they broke the front door and stole three bikes. “I found three customer bikes had been stolen," Ian Ancelin, the owner of the Velowood Cyclery, said. "They were all full suspension mountain bikes." Ancelin has owned the shop since 2018 and said he does a lot of repair work on bikes. He said the three bikes stolen were all very expensive, and he believes the thieves knew that because they didn't take anything else. "It's probably around $20,000 worth of bikes," Ancelin said. He has put in an insurance claim but said he isn't sure exactly how much it will cover.He said he also contacted the customers of his who owned the bikes to let them know what happened. “Right now, we will very likely have to pay a lot out of pocket as well," Ancelin said. The break-in happened sometime between Wednesday night and Thursday morning last week. He said nearby business owners texted him letting him k...
