  • Just had two bikes stolen from outside Royal Oak on Columbia Road E2. Both locked to lamppost with 2 Kryptonite Fahgettaboudit D-locks. A Charge Plug Freestyler (2009) and a Specialized Langster Monaco (2009) with cloth griptape on the handlebars. Absolutely gutted - is Brick Lane the only place worth looking? If anyone sees them, please PM me!

    Both you and your "friend" had Kryptonite Fahgettaboudit D-locks on each of your bikes? Thats not only a big coincidence, but I know the Mini can't fit around any lampost, unless of course the bike is raised high up off the ground. The lower part of lamposts are too wide for a Fahg lock.

    Also, how long did you leave your bikes for. The Fahg takes 3 minutes to cut by angle-grinder, so they would have needed 6 minutes, and for no-one to notice sparks flying and the sound of a chainsaw (practically that loud).

    Sorry, I was born a bit sceptical. Not only would you be one of the first to have your bikes stolen when (properly?) locked with Fahgs, but to have two stolen..... Its almost beyond belief. Any photos of where you locked your bikes, or do you have any bits of the locks that were cut?
