This stainless steel and black machine was stolen last week 13/02/2010 from Broadway Market in Hackney. It was reported immediately to the police; notices have been posted elsewhere on the web and printed for shops etc. to display. I have spent hours trawling markets, especially Brick Lane. 'My other bike's fixed' so forgive the presence of gears on this one...
Though probably stripped in large part, components were/are as follows:
Cranks and derailleur: Suntour Superbe Pro
Chainring: Royce 57t
Pedals: TA 'track'
Brakes: Unbranded long dual pivots (black)
Wheels: Moulton 20-spoke 369mm with Hugi Compact hubs
Headset: Mavic
Saddle: Green Brooks Professional, matching handlebar tape
Pitlocks on both wheels and seatpost(!)
It was secured with an Abus Granit X Plus U-lock to a proper bike post, around the middle of the frame. The U part had been sawn through in two places very cleanly. Obviously the thieves came prepared - almost certainly local I'd guess. Though out of visual contact I was very nearby yet heard no loud noises - any ideas?
It is unusual and ought to stand out, in a sense this is its only hope. Doubtless, I'd be appallingly grateful for any help or info. I offer full reimbursement and more on any cost incurred in recovery!! Call 07917 565501. Thanks for reading...
