  • STOLEN today, 06/10/08, between 13:45 and 16:30

    Locked around a tree outside the entrance to bike shed of Imperial College in South Kensington
    Lock is gone too (its a yellow-orange Oxford cable lock).

    It's a black Giant Bowery '08.
    It's a large size.
    Has a flip-flop rear wheel.
    About 2 months old (used regularly, but not every day), a little dirty.

    Has the brackets for Cateye lights on the handlebar and seatpost (I have the lights) as well as a front and rear circular reflector.
    The cap of the presta valve on the rear wheel is missing.
    The brake lever cap on the left hand side of the handle bars is scuffed where the silver metal cap is.

    Otherwise it looks just like it came from the shop.

    Looks pretty much like this (with the above modifications):


    a) you're not supposed to lock around the tree's
    b) there is a secure facility with 2 sets of doors, 2m away
    c) cable locks are shit
    d) imperial is a known theft hot spot

    there is CCTV in that area so security should be able to see who it was. check gumtree, as the guys who used to steal them put them up there!
