Man, that's a joke, sorry to here that Gio, I've got a short cage 5800 rear mech you can have for cheaps if you need one, as I need the medium cage version. From your photo it looks like your chain is intact, so did they break it only to rejoin it!? If so, how bizarre is that....
The most recent components to be pinched from one of my bikes was a pair of Magura HS33 hydraulic callipers. The punks cut the hoses and undid the hex bolts, left brake fluid all over bike.
I've taken to sticking window putty in the bolt heads of anything especially pinch-able, as it starts soft so is easy to fill with but then dries hard enough to make unscrewing bolts tricky, hopefully enough of a deterrent for most thieves.

I think they just unscrewed one of the pulleys to open the tensioner in two and remove it from the chain.
I'm sorted already, I needed the bike over the weekend so 29 quid at Evans did the trick.. But yes, total bummer.
@Clockwise doubt it, this looked really neat as if they needed just that (also, bike was locked with two locks)

I parked my bike in plain sight in Dalston square last Friday between 19.30 and 22.30. Only to find it without derailleur when returned to it.. Someone must have really needed one since it was just a 105 5800 that you can buy for 29£ online. This never happened to me before.. I was really baffled
