July 17, 201312 yr I've asked a few questions and will report back. Oddly seller has a ladies version with battery for sale too. So maybe genuine reason ?
July 17, 201312 yr I asked if he/she had the old dead battery as i may be able to recell it. Just said he didnt have it no charger for either bike - no explaination provided double dodgy
July 17, 201312 yr did a bit of minor sleuthing. And look 2 x aggattu, one womans and one mens nicked in Bristol. Same place these are being sold. OP states he has chargers and keys http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/stolen-electric-bikes-equipment/10120-stolen-two-kalkhoff-agattu.html He has never been back to forum - perhaps a Moderator can email this to him ?
July 17, 201312 yr Author Yes, it was actually the step-thru I looked at then saw the same seller offering the gents' bike and I didn't like the sound of it all. Of course, it might be entirely kosher but these are not very old bikes and I always think 'STOLEN' any time I see an ebike on ebay without a battery. Anybody lost one in recent times? Melissa ps Your post just beat mine to press, Kirstin......good sleuthing Sir! pps Those bikes were stolen in 2011! Edited July 17, 201312 yr by melspea
July 17, 201312 yr If you send a private message to "oowee" he should get an automatic Email alert, unless he disabled the facility.
July 17, 201312 yr No mention of whether there's charger and keys included. Loads of people list without mentioning battery and charger. Sometimes I send them a message suggesting they need to list if available as failure to do so can suggest the bike is stolen. This often results in changes to the listing and even a few messages of thanks. Seems it just does not occur to many sellers if unprompted.
July 17, 201312 yr I asked the seller about charger. He responded: "The previous owner was unaware where either of these items were (the battery and charger)". It possible that this guy has purchased from whoever stole it, but it does seem most likely that its stolen.
July 17, 201312 yr I only asked about the gents bike, but I notice in the description of the ladies bike that 'the battery is dead and needs recharging', implying the seller has no charger. Definitely TWOCed.
July 17, 201312 yr I emailed them to - def no charger on both bikes . I asked for a serial numbe and got one too. Makes me think that if stolen prob not by this seller "Hi, I have removed the locking device on these bikes as the previous owner did not know where anything relating to the bikes was stored including the keys The serial number is for this bike is: 182097 0001 5800 4295 0608 It would be easy enough to secure the battery pack when unattended using a normal lock."
