Stolen bikes

@ltc

There’s a buzzbike in here:

https://www.wilsonsauctions.com/timed-auction/listings?culture=en-GB&salecode=OM1545&page=1&pagesize=20&sortby=reference_asc

Thanks for that! Cheeky fuckers.

That auction MIGHT be selling some bikes they need to watch out for... this is described as having a buckled wheel. That'd be the least of my concerns

Isn't that a police auction?

Quite apart from that destroyed frame, I rather doubt they should be selling on all those crappy e-bike conversions.

i agree!

Stolen early this morning from Upper Clapton Road E5.
1997 Specialized Rockhopper with a campandgoslow sticker and chris king headset.
Bought it off here back in march, would be very grateful if people can keep their eyes peeled.

UPDATE: miraculously recovered! I chased a guy down riding this past me as I was jumping out of an Uber

Original Mavic Cosmic wheels, full Dura Ace group, look carbon pedals etc.

Pretty sad about this one :(

Bloody hell, the trouble people go to just to nick an old bike. They most probably have no clue what a classic this is 😭

Absolutely. The paint is so tattered etc.. they must have liked the shiny wheels. Pretty sure this will be wasted on whoever they sell it to

Almost 90% of all bicycle theft cases reported to police over the past year were closed without a suspect even being identified, and just 1.7% resulted in someone being charged, analysis of crime statistics shows.

My friend has had his Specialized AWOL stolen. Could anyone around Hackney/London fields/Clapton please keep an eye out?
It’s a size L with a distinctive basket on the front.

Is that a crank puller in there?
Maybe someone just lost a pedal/messed the thread up and got stranded

Yep, it’s a crank puller.

Odd not to lock up/walk it home though

I don't think bikes often get resold in the form they got stolen. I had my Orange Patriot stolen and a carbon road bike. The patriot is rare enough that I'd spot it on eBay/Facebook but I think they get broken up. There's a few sellers on eBay who list hundreds of parts week after week - where are they coming from? The link below is to someone selling what are almost exactly my cranks, but how would I know for sure unless every part was tagged, and how do I know he's not genuine either? It would be interesting to see if there was a way of spotting a few of these sellers and seeing if rare or easily spotable parts from recently stolen bikes start coming up....

My wife had her Brompton stolen from our house in the last week or so (we were away on holiday when it happened). Its fairly distinctive, but if they have pealed the stickers off its got the P line roller wheels and P line mudguards (round profile rather than square profile), and a well worn B17 short with the cutout.

If you see it, please let me know.

Cheers
