Thieves have snatched two bicycles – believed to be the only ones of their kind in the country – from a locked garage at Wigmore.
Police are appealing for information following the burglary in Ford Street between last Wednesday afternoon and noon on Sunday.
A khaki and black Orbea Satellite mountain bike and a custom-made Cyclo Crosslight, with knobbly red-rimmed tyres, were stolen.
The branding on the stem/handlebars is FSA and the gears are Campagnolo.
Both bikes are worth around £1,400.
The thieves rode the bikes across the back garden to open fields at the rear, but their escape route from there is unknown.
Anyone with information should contact PC Andy Varden at Leominster Police Station on 0300 333 3000 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
Police are also appealing for information after a purse was stolen from a charity card seller at Leominster Library last week.
Two men came into the foyer area on the ground floor of the Library in Buttercross, around 5.30pm last Thursday and one worker distracted the victim, while the other removed her purse.
They were both white, of scruffy and unshaven appearance and aged in their late 20s,
