00:00 A Clyro business has been forced to close its doors for good after a second theft cleared them of most of their stock,

00:06 including a bike for their young son, Mason.

00:08 Matthew, who owns MDMX, a motorsport shop in Clyro, woke up this week to discover that all of his new stock,

00:15 including helmets, gloves and clothes, were taken.

00:18 It's estimated that he has lost thousands so close to Christmas.

00:22 A business next door to his, known as Lee Walters Off-Road Training, also had a bike stolen in the same robbery.

00:29 Writing on Facebook, Matthew said, "MDMX is closed. Again, thieves strike and this time they have taken my son's bikes,

00:37 all our new stock of helmets and everything else. This is the end."

00:41 Matthew had bought a bike for his son, which was stolen and loaded into a vehicle on the A438 road.

00:47 Matthew said, "Please, if someone saw a vehicle parked on the old road Clyro that leads to the River Y track

00:53 early hours Wednesday morning or late Tuesday evening, please get in touch."

00:58 It's not the first time Matthew has had stock stolen from his business.

01:01 Just over three years ago, thieves targeted his business, but he was able to bounce back from it.

01:06 It's been a rough road to grow his business, but Matthew found the strength to continue from the customer support over the years.

01:12 David Powers Police have confirmed that police have received the report and are investigating.

01:18 The friends of Matthew's partner, Claire, have put together a fundraiser for the family so that they can afford to buy Mason a new bike.

01:25 Now, Matthew is hoping that the culprits can be found.
