Bolt Cutters to get my bike back

Hi all,

Sorry to spam but I'm desperate (won't post anywhere else).

Ive got that 'someone has locked their bike through the rail and round my bike' problem.

Ive left a note, stripped the bike so it's not worth nicking and given it a couple of days but it's a hand built F R Russel with DA cranks and it's going rusty.

I'm going to have to chop off their lock and temporarily replace it with mine and leave another note with my number and an explanation/apology.

So right now I have no bike and no bolt cutters but does someone have the latter so I can get back the former?

I'm based in Haggerston but am happy to travel and will give £/beers as thanks.

Pls help

James

Also if anyone has had the same issue and knows a solution that doesn't involve massacring a lock, I'm more open to that suggestion.

Thanks

101 and fire brigade? Much less likely to lead to trouble for you.

@Tenners thank you, just called 101 and they actually advised to chop it as the bike is my property (I was surprised)

The search is back on

Heh, fair enough. I wouldn't still. That's criminal damage of someone else's property.

Thanks @diable, don't think cutters would take off that Abus chain?

And yep took the wheels and saddle off this morning it's just down to its bare rusty bones

@Tenners yeah feels a bit dodgy but Ive had official approval from her majesty's metropolitan police force

Personally I would just hire a Battery Angle Grinder like mentioned earlier it will take about 5mins to cut off, oh and I wouldn't be leaving any apology note just saying, good luck

My old frame <3 Send me a PM if you haven't got this sorted..
