Stolen bikes

My friend's bike was stolen last night from outside a pub near Dalston. It was weird because they left his kryptonite, still locked, on the lamp post.

Bad pic but you get the idea. Let me know if you spot it anywhere.

He loved cycling so I want to help him get this replaced ASAP. Please let me know if you have anything for sale similar to the bike in the pic, steel, 52-54cm, geared, flat bar.

Beloved Giant Bowery stolen in Hatfield on Mon night (8 April).

2008 model, black & silver, Cannondale saddle with an orange stripe.

It was just my station bike... but I miss it. :-(

Had two masked moped dickheads pull up outside my work, angle-grind a fahgeddaboudit mini off my bike through a fence in broad daylight and drive off without anyone batting an eyelid.

If you see this around, now with a carbon fork and Schwalbe G-one Speed 2.35’s feel free to remove the owners knees....

That’s two beautiful ti bikes in the space of 8 months - screw this city.

Thats fuckin terrible.

Yup, it’s rocked me on tour around Tasmania and ripped over the Gravel dash... sadly not going to get any more nice bikes for London.

Still, insurance, which is good - but I’ve only just got through with claiming for the last one though so I’m sure they’ll have some extra questions this time.

jeez, dude.
is this a custom frame? looks super nice, love the fork too.

Fuck. Got cctv?

Designed by a guy off the forum and made by the decent Chinese custom titanium place. It’s 100% one of a kind.

Fork was incredible fun but waaaaay too flexy, as I found out on some proper hairy singletrack. Great times, probably nearly died, but great times...

God I’m starting to miss this bike

:(

After the last one got nicked the building offered to fit cctv but they messed around with implementing it and now it’s 2 for 2 to the bike thieves.

Tbh though, these guys were pro’s - angle grinder, masks and a no doubt stolen scooter - cctv would be nothing but a pixelated reminder of how it happened.

My design. Made by Waltly.

no pit-model nextie rims on it? disappointing

nah, figured that death trap forks will be enough on that one.

Lame. RIP

Damn you, you swore those forks were the ultimate in luxury :)

Glad you’re still about - can I grab a statement that you sold me the frame for x million pounds. For insurance purposes obvs.

They were made with bike packing in mind, not shredding single track!

How do I go about making such a statement?

I know, I know - it wasn’t my intention... sometimes you just have to give these things a go. You know what I mean - I’ve just seen a pic of your knee from the Bullheart ride thread.

If it’s alright I’ll give you a shout after I prime the insurance guys with the list of every part, it’s cost and equivalent purchase value that they’ll no doubt insist on. Then if you could just send an email saying I sold this, for that much on this date, it cost this much new - I’ll forward it on to them.

No problem at all. I'll try and find the original invoice too.

Sorry to hear about your loss. Where in London was it (if you can say)?

Thanks Oliver, it was on the west side of Devonshire st just after it crosses Harley st.

anyone lost this looks abit hot

Not so sure. Guy is pretty visible with a long varied sales history.

Hello, I was hoping someone might have seen my Cannondale Synapse bike. Frame size is 56cm with white bar tape as shown in the photo. This only difference being the tyres which were upgraded. I had the misfortune of it being stolen through my rear windscreen of my car 2 nights ago! My car was parked in Stoke Newington. Went to Brick Lane Market this morning but had no luck.

hope okay to post the theft of bike parts, someone has liberated me of my Brooks saddle this morning outside of Cannon St station, sometime in between 6:30 and 8 this morning.

it's a Brooks Ladies pro s, honey coloured with copper rivets, with a pretty deep scuff mark/ scrape right next to the Brooks badge on the left. if anyone sees one matching this description for sale pls let me know. i was quite attached to it and i don't want to spend four years remoulding a new one to my butt :(
