• It seems pretty dumb. If you're going to go to the trouble of getting tooled up to rob people, why not get a fucking jewellery store or a betting shop or a posh bar or something decent. No one wants some crashed arsed old bike

  • jewellery store

    I witnessed a pawn brokers get done over in Brixton with a firearm not that many years ago. Pulled off with very effective Snatch style disguises.

    5 mins down the road about 7 plain clothes cops came at them from every angle. csb

  • Not really.

    Jewellers well protected.

    CCTV / alarms / safe / panic button etc.

    Vehicles generally have anti theft devices / trackers etc.

    A 5 / 10 K crabon biek can be serial scrubbed and made untraceable in an ebay auction near you.

    They hit a guy with a brand new crabon dale. They know what they are doing. Selective.

    Bike theft is as old as the hills. The price inflation has just made them moving targets.

    Easy money.
