Hi guys, my beloved bicycle recently got stolen from a private stairwell on Golden Lane Estate (London, EC1Y). The theft took place between 15:00-16:20 on 31st August (Bank Holiday Monday). I've only had it since May, but it's a custom build from an excellent guy up in Edinburgh where I study, and it's gotten a whole lot of use down in London/the Weald/East Anglia this summer so I've become really rather attached to it and had plans to continue upgrading it into a semi-gravel bike.
I'm heading back up to uni in a matter of days and am just trying everything I possibly can before then - so it would be hugely appreciated if anyone London-based (particularly in the City/Islington/Hackney sort of area) happens to come across it and could let me know!
If anyone can keep their eyes peeled - it's a 1980s newly-painted-black Orbea road frame (no decals other than a Columbus AELLE sticker, minor top tube scratches), riser bars with pink grips and pink front brake cable, brown gumwall Panaracer GravelKing tyres on aluminium rims, Brooks C15 AllWeather black saddle, Shimano cranks + brakes and SunTour derailleur. Please see the attached photos.
Please contact me on 07480 513 038 - thank you!
P.S. I see people including their crime ref numbers, is there any benefit in doing this? I would have assumed it should be kept private but seemingly not.
