Interesting story about former NBA center Shawn Bradley’s with a custom Trek bike being stolen and recovered. Shawn Bradley stands 7 feet 6 inches and his custom made Trek bike is about double the size of any normal road bikes and is practically impossible to be ridden by others.
MURRAY, Utah – At 7-foot-6, former NBA center Shawn Bradley needs just about everything custom-made, from clothes and chairs to countertops and doorways.

Bradley, a former NBA player, was “dumbfounded” when someone recently stole his bike, an 80-centimeter-frame Trek. The company didn’t even include a serial number with the bike, figuring it would be useless to anyone but Bradley. Person at left is unidentified. (AP Photo/Courtesy of Shawn Bradley)
It’s why he was bummed when his custom-build Trek road bicycle, complete with an 80 centimeter carbon fiber-aluminum frame, was stolen last Friday.
“There’s no way they could have ridden it away,” Bradley said Thursday morning. “It’s kind of baffling. I think it will turn up.”
