A Toronto bicycle manufacturer has had a rough ride after a one-of-a-kind carbon fibre bicycle prototype was stolen in a break-in that surveillance video shows was over in a matter of seconds.

A thief smashed Bridge Bike Works’ window with a brick early Monday morning before rushing in to grab the $15,000 bike, which is the fifth prototype of a new model the company calls The Surveyor.

“There’s nothing like it. It’s literally one of a kind. There’s no other bike that’s painted like it, no other bike that looks like it,” said company co-founder Frank Gairdner. “We are very close to full production, and we’ve had a lot of positive interest. We’re just about to start building for customers. This is a proof of concept that we’re almost there,” Gairdner said.Surveillance video shows a car roll up in front of the company’s North York address. In another video, the sound of broken glass can be heard as the man rushes inside, grabs the bicycle, and starts loading it into his vehicle just 11 seconds later.
