You need to go earlier to catch the really nice bikes, 8am-ish. My dad is pro at recovering stolens. There wasn't that much notable today, as you said Mr Chinaman was selling some ridiculously nice forks. The van nextdoor to him has an industrial tool thingy (for cutting locks) on blatent show, scummy looking guy.
I agree with the whole police presence thing, absolute farce. Didn't see one at all in my time spent there today. Seen a group of CSO's down in Angel giving out balloons to kids and flimsy locks (which any decent thief would crack open in seconds), one CSO dressed up in a police mascot outfit. I hate to sound Daily Mail-esque but it's outrageous.
