Stolen bikes

people, post your phone numbers if you've lost a bike. that way if your bike is spotted, we can slap a lock on it, then call you sharpish to come collect.

i'ved added my phone number. Thanks.

May as well post here too:

Stolen - my lovely worn in (i.e. knackered) brown Brooks Swift saddle plus Condor carbon fibre seatpost.

Cheers

My bike was stolen from the ecotort theater in hackney last week. Fixed gear, mavic rims, orange handlebar tape, blue ellis briggs frame (shipley, yorks) with damage near the front chain ring and single shimano front brake. Email lucy@magnificentrevolution.org if you spot it.

Apologies for just dropping in but given the number of bikes you guys see every day i thought it would be worth a shot.....

I had my Cotic Roadrat stolen last weekfrom Bunhill Row very near Old Street and had no luck finding it at Brick Lane market on sunday.

I have no pictures but for those of you who don't know what they look like, see the link below.

Mine has deore V-brakes instead of discs and an ultegra crank and rear derailleur (yes, it has gears - sorry). Bontrager race wheels and shimano A530 SPD pedals (flats on one side). It did have a rear rack and SKS race-blades but i suspect it has been stripped of these. I can't imagine there are too many roadrats set up like this knocking around london so if you do see it please give me a call or slap a chain on it(07825 056 363)

Thanks for your time.

Tuesday 3.40am my bike got stolen from insight our house in homerton.
I'm trying to find it back on gumtree and ebay and bricklane on sunday

• I thought I drop everybody i know in london an email and some of you guys

  i was wondering if you would mind to get it touch if you happen to see this bike.

I am so sorry to hear about this. There aren't too many of these knocking about, I'll keep my eyes peeled

there is a stolen bike thread, have you checked it?

Thank you guys!

yellow version of my bike. Should be easy to spot. I'll keep an eye out

damn, and good luck getting it back

Grit - sorry to hear you got your bike stolen. Now say I see it on brick lane on Sunday. what do you want me to do? go to an internet cafe and send you an email?

could you please give more details of how your bike got stolen ?
A lot of us live in the Hackney area, and this is the 2nd bike that has been stolen from inside a property in the last 2 weeks. Did they take other pricey stuff, or were they only after the bikes?

And sorry to hear about your bike, we'll keep eyes peeled.

Just saw 2 guys walking down Old Street with bikes, one of them was completely drunk, and the bike he had was a green SS/Fixed.

Hoping its innocent, but looked well dubious.

I put MY MOBIL NUMBER down in the private - mobil thread!

this *has *to come up

never, ever seen one in yellow

Keep an eye on gumtree and ebay, set up an auto emailer thingy that sends you an email everytime something is listed with the words monoc... oh and its a given that you need to cruise brick lane this weekend i'm afraid

regarding how it was stolen: 3.30am tues, my flatmate chased one out of our house - between 17-18, black, short hair, beige clothes =that's all he could see (I'm happy he didn't catch him as this could have been a lot worse...) not sure how planned it was - but they must have known our driveway as we have a black metal gate fencing of 4 houses - a jacket of my flatmate with workshopkeys incl. his businesscards and my bike was the worst, next to that just our paperwork from the house, we found some stuff they droped in the drive-way (really random things: wholepunch, half-empty bottle olive oil, a bottle of vine...
It seems rather random than directly aimed at the bike - the police guess is they are after cash¿ ...
THANK YOU FOR KEEPING YOUR EYES OPEN!

^^ Edit your number out of the thread ASAP and post it in the Mobiles Thread in the Private forum. Google will index this page at some point (post already showing in Google search results) and then it will be stuck online forevermore!!

STOLEN LAST NIGHT IN CAMBRIDGE

Navy blue Charge Plug, completely stock apart from white Soma toeclips/straps. It's well ridden and has a fair old graze on the left seat stay....

Not really sure how it managed to get taken, but I just want it back, so if anyone see's it around Cambridge please let me know and we can break some skulls. E-mail me greghilsonATyahooDOTcom with any information/sightings etc.
