Heard of many stolen scooter + motorbike assisted grab thefts, guess it was only a matter of time before it went to powerful ebike assisted.
PSA Glasgow bike theft is absolutely through the roof right now. Last few weeks I must have had 30 phone calls, emails and customers come into shop to alert me to stolen bikes. Normally (pre 2020) i'd get 1 a month, 2020 till recent maybe 5 a month. Absolutely mental amounts of theft. Local well being charity just had their whole fleet taken, extra shitty behavior.

56cm Mason Definition nicked from Dog and Bell in Deptford last night, along with an Size 2XS Canyon with 650B wheels.
Mason has a dynamo rig plus mismatched 105/ultegra groupset, mudguards and a power meter on the LHS crank.
Bikes locked together a few feet from where we were sitting, some lads on ebikes flew past and dragged the whole lot off down the road. I imagine they're both completely scratched to fuck now, like - so as well as being fairly uncommon bikes they'll probably have some distinguishing marks.
