Hi @croft , did the LAPIOVRA look like the one in the picture with Deda streetisimo bars? Is it possible that the rear wheel you saw actually is a deep-rim from state bicycle in black but not carbon? See: https://stolen-bikes.co.uk/stolen-bikes/brick-lane-bikes-la-piovra-air/
Because my LAPIOVRA has been stolen a few days ago. It is a very unique bike so if you see it is most probably mine.Here is the description:
-Frame: BLB La Piovra in Black Chrome
-Fork: Planet X full carbon road fork in matt black
-Headset: Cane Creek integrated headset in black and white
-Front wheel: HED 3 clincher track version 700c
-Rear wheel: State Bicycle black rim and spoke with green hub (flip-flop hub) with 16T cog. Damaged braking surface.
-Tyres: Schwalbe Durano Skid
-Stem: 3T Arx-Pro
-Crankset: Black Sturmey Archer- Handlebars and grips (upgrade not shown on the picture): Deda Streetisimmo bars black and white and Cinelli Mike Giant Art lock-on grips in black and white.
-Saddle: State Bicycle stock saddle in black
-Seatpost: Guizzo carbon seatpost
-BB: State Bicycle stock bb
Thanks for your time, please contact me if you have any info! Thanks @Raksy

It wasn't a fully chromed frame with un-taped drops was it? If so, I see that guy a lot, always on Bishopsgate.
Edit: No it wasn't. I hope you get your bike back, @elliotm.
Just seen some absolute whopper on his LAPIOVRA with deep carbon rear and trispoke front lose his aviators riding like a muppet down Bishopsgate. I lolled.
