wintyDono-
So this happened on Thursday. Found my bike locked up 5 mins from where it was stolen a week earlier, secured by my cable lock (my initials are sharpied on it) and a padlock. sadly my rack and front basket were gone, but still had the same electrical tape and cable ties holding it together (I quickly put my D lock on it when I saw it there).
This is a photo of the PCSO trying to cut it free with a pair of scissor... it’s now at the station (after they finally found bolt cutters), and they said I’d hopefully get it back in the next few weeks.
@wintyDono it’s great to know I can trace the sale chain back to you - might have to prove that! Long shot, but don’t suppose you have the LFGSS advert from when you sold it to @mk1mark?
speculoos
I know! It was this Specialized one – the seller @mk1mark described it as 'agricultural'.. https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/352232/#comment15460806
A janky Specialized mtb frame with crunchy gears and fat tyres that was actually one of the comfiest rides I've ever owned, and I never thought this would happen! And even more annoyed as I just spent £20 on a rack and bought a new kryptonite, and feel like this might just happen again regardless of how shit it is/how many locks I put on it.
