Stolen bikes

I meant that in the sense that while the police don't do that much work on bike theft, they do slightly more of threatening people with weapons. While the liquid might not be acid, that would probably raise the police's interest in finding him a little more.

Stamford Hill old bill recommended that if you see that stuff just call the law, don't get involved:

Oh, absolutely, don't play the hero. Still, that some people were prepared to intervene and that brought the potential for violence out should have raised the police's interest somewhat.

I'm shaken by that... Mental!

Cordless fucking angle grinders. Game changer

Anyone lost a Specialized Sirrius XS in reflective black?

Hopefully a handprint was retrieved from the cut lock as the numpty that actually cuts it had his bare hand all over it

Fingerprints?

criminals are stupid thankfully.

damn that's gnarly
cycle past there all the time, and lock my bike up a bit further down sometimes
luckily it's not a brompton...

Scary af...

Yes

They've been around for years.

Whom? Photos?

Anyone lost a black aventon? Found unlocked in pimpico w/ volt light. PM me to reclaim

Police will take fingerprints if available.

I have my own story around getting someone a conviction for a bike theft (in London), which was due to me managing to recover the bike and the Police taking prints.

My neighbours bike was also taken on Tuesday (see Boardman above). It's the green Trek Lexa Ladies road bike.

Anyone in Bloomsbury/Euston/WC1 had their bars nicked recently? Found some dumped on my office doorstep, minus the shifters.

Scary stuff in Reading:

Saw a guy on a blatantly rattle-canned Bullit on City Road, with the original rub-on stickers still visible underneath. Why would someone do this, unless it was hot?

wtf

Could you tell if it was an electric bullitt bike?

Can't say I noticed, but will keep an eye out if there's a next time. Do you know anyone who's lost one?

City sprint courier company has lost one couple of months ago, I've seen a guy ridding an electric bullitt with CS logos on it without a parcel bag and he was pedalling like power assist was off,just later I've find out that one of the CS ebullitt got nicked.

I saw a guy riding what looked like a city sprint cargo bike it had white paint covering where city sprint is normally visible, Liverpool st area
