Enquiries in relation to the incident are ongoing.
Detectives have released photographs of the stolen bikes and are urging anyone with any information or footage that may aid their investigation to get in touch.
Detective Constable Paul Matchett said: “We are determined to establish who broke into the shed and stole the bikes and then bring them to justice.
“We are also determined to have the stolen bikes returned to the owners.
“Enquiries are ongoing and as part of our investigation we want to speak to anyone who was in the area and witnessed anything suspicious.

“The same goes for anyone who believes that they may know the identities of the offenders or where the stolen bikes are.
“We also want to hear from anyone who is offered the chance to buy any of the stolen bikes.”
