Stolen bikes

doesn't sound like these 'humans' will be up early. Let's get it back!
(though I work nowhere near this, so, youlot have to go. I'm there in spirit.)

I tried something similar when I had a bike nicked 18 months ago managed to track someone down on gumtree selling shadey bikes in the area.

Tried calling him was def dodgy the ad had pictures of rows of bikes lined up against his house through luck / stubborn nature I managed to find the house by backdoor / brick colour.

Went round late after work to see who lived there was loads of activity and shit loads of bikes in the garden but couldn't get a good enough look to see mine, so got up 6am next morning went equiped and scalled the wall with the intention of nicking my bike back and leaving a note (terrible idea) saying nice try cunt etc

It wasn't there so just reported the address to police and left it to them.

@vinylvillain....... can you please elaborate, I live in camden and would love to avoid the same happening to me.

Shit, bike jacked in Camden?! I'll keep my eyes peeled as that's my neck of the woods. Got any more details on what happened?

Thanks a lot Alex, at the library now. Was my last day of school yesterday and was sitting in Cantalowes park with some friends when three (plzdontjudgeme) black guys came up and literally picked up my bike and started walking off. There was about 40 of us but no one was really in a 'sober state' but then someone realised and chased after them.. they seemed to be heading towards Torriano/Hilldrop Estate.
Really gutted, loved that bike. And it was my last day of school..

Seemingly quite a few reports of bikejackings recently. :<

Hello guys, I hope you're all well.

Like many in london, me and my housemate were unfortunate victims of bicycle theft last night. The thieves took noisy tarpaulin off the bikes and cut through our locks right outside our windows. Damn double glazing!

The bikes in question were quite unique being a bright orange Klein full sus and a nice red Carlton with polished forks. The Klein is recognisable in an instant and the Carlton has wooden handlebars made by myself.

Please look out for A BRIGHT ORANGE KLEIN and a RED CARLTON WITH WOODEN HANDLEBARS.

Please see images of Carlton below:

You guys can contact me at madebynick (at) googlemail (dot) com if you have any information or sightings.

Thank you in advance for your help. I really appreciate it.

Hey...

A bike I just built for a friend has been stolen, (he's had it all of 5 days) in the last half an hour on the southbank...it had a chain...meh...and I told him it shouldn't be in sight..as if anyone saw it ...they would try to steal it...

They stole it...

it's a lemond tourmelet conversion with lemond carbon forks and easton carbon bars, shimano 600 brakes, rx100 crank, peaty grips, dirt harry levers, SE red adonised wheels, New Armadillos back and front, genetic red adonised track pedals, red half link chain.

If you see it anywhere then ring me and I will ring him, he's quite a big guy and would love to ring whoevers neck pinched it...

if anyone sees it anywhere pm me please..he will happily go and get it from whoever...we will do brick lane on sunday dn if anyone see anything on gumtree can they pm me too?

many thanks

Pia

Awh man that sucks. That's a really tidy conversion.

I can't imagine that one to pass under the radar for too long. Good luck.

Apart from the red chain, that is a lovely bike. I love Lemonds

He chose the chain...;D...;(...

I just spotted a scruffy lookin guy, jeans, trainers, pleather jacket, white, short dark hair, stubbley face. Ridinf southbound on Brixton Hill, red light jumped on a full on TT rig. All black. I think it was specialized. It has red/black look keos on it. it had an expensive 8 LED cateye light on the seatpost, which wasn't turned on. he was wobbling a lot. Hope its not stolen, but if its yours its gone south.

Okey dokey maybe I'm a numpty but the wheels are worth more than this cat's asking, no? I really like the look of this bike but Mr Gumtree seems not arsed to big up it's details at all. Hmm, mebee it's nicked, aww .....I knew it!

Felt z100 Grey with red tape etc...

Stolen Wednesday 5.50 PM outside Iceland Stoke Newington. HE POPPED IN FOR 2 MINS AND THEY BROKE HIS LOCK WITHIN THAT TIME.

Soz for caps. Accident

@georgecmx how was it locked? any further details?

It was locked INSIDE Sainsbury's right near the cigarette counter (abus £65 lock). They must have run off with it and dealt with the lock later on.

There was nothing organised about the theft so theres a chance its just some scally from the area who saw an opportunity. Im hoping someone spots it for me so i can 'retrieve' it!!

There is a small geared, grey Felt outside a second hand shop on Green Lanes where it joins Newington Green just near the Tesco's. Didn't have time to stop and ask about it and had no phone to take a pic but it didn't feel right. Might be worth a look
