Cheers

it was a arabic kid of about 13. the bartape was no longer. ill keep my eye out. shall i try and buy it back?

Don't buy it, snatch it back.

buying it back just give them more reason to go and nick more bike.

Thanks if you happen across it again then yes please try and buy it back and I will obviously re-inburse you straight away but don't go to too much trouble and certainly don't put yourself too much out of pocket. I've no idea what they would want for this and if they want alot then no (so anything over £100.) I couldn't abide the thought of them getting my money!

Please don't try to snatch it back! I appreciate the thought but it's just a Plug nothing sentimental! I would feel a whole lot worse if you got into trouble physical or otherwise!

Hey where was the Charge spotted/offered? was it near Stepney?

Yep, near Roman Rd.

Well its probably some little cunts that are always steal bikes, they love those charges. My friend had his stolen by them, we managed to grab it off the cunt though so it was happy for us. We told the Police about them because they offered us other bikes but they said they couldnt prove the other bikes where stolen so wouldnt investigate.

They need to be caught, set-up a trap with the police. Or grab one an tie the little cunt to a brick and throw hime in the Thames.

Ah damn, I've seen you around, your bike is lovely. I'm often around that area, will keep my eyes peeled. Might have been the local Shakespeare gang, check the old dodgy bike repairs shop just off Milton Grove, they might try and sell it to him.

Thanks for the tip off - not mine, but a mate's - he's gutted..

Stolen this evening from outside the Britannia Pub in Victoria Park.

Charge Plug, see below for picture. Some time between 8:25 and 9:28 pm.

If anyone sees it around on Gumtree or is offered it on the street please let me know.

It's the blue model but i'd changed the wheels (Velocity Deep V white), Saddle (BLB, White), Chain and rear hub (er... you guessed it white), pedals and foot clips (white leather) and the grips on the bull horns to white as well.

Continental gatorskin tyres front and rear.

There's a yellow sng speed btwin on Brick lane today.

Looks suspect

Brick Lane was an absolute gold mine this morning, I'm sorry to say for anyone who has lost their bike. Many many very dodgy sales going on, too many to list.

A Create bike, fixed with two brakes and very wide handlebars stuck out. I don't have a brilliant description but if you've lost one that could have been it.

What struck me the most, and I'm deeply apologetic that I didn't bring it home, was an absolutely beautiful red Holdsworth. Lovely engravings on the seat stem, nice lugs, etc. I saw a smackhead with it and I instantly recognized a description from someone earlier in this thread. The smackhead sold it to a deaf seller for 20 quid. I almost interjected because the deaf guy was declining a lot. The deaf guy then sold it within minutes for 40 quid to, whom I believe I recognize as Mr Chinese man. I was sooo tempted to buy it, really nice set of wheels, seat had be covered up in black tape but it had the original Holdsworth marking on the seat stem so I'm sure it was nice, an he'd replaced the handlebars with some tacky mountain bike ones. Really sorry if it was yours, in my defence I don't know where I would have stood legally buying a stolen bike, although the number of people down there indicate how little people care about buying a clearly stolen bike. Also, this might distinguish it if it's yours: the dropouts had two security protected stickers on it. I really hope it's tagged so you can catch the bastard. That put me off being chivalric though, as I thought the ambivilent law would not accept the excuse 'I bought it to return it'.

Annnyway, sorry for going on but that was my highlight today, again my sincere apologies if it was your bike, I would have happily bought it for twenty or even forty quid (done up, I'm sure it could have fetched 200-300 for the frame alone) if I knew where I stood in the eyes of the law.

Oh and by the by, I didn't spot one policeman on my journey around today.

Agree it should be standard practice to post as much info as poss, so here we go with a proper effort with mine.

Make/Model: Klein Adept Comp full suspension.
Colour: Orange with bursts of yellow (see pic)
Manitou forks
Bontrager seat
New Shimano XT M771 Rear Derailleur (should be sparkling as less than 2 weeks old)
Frame number: CH0009076 on bottom bracket or drive side dropout (I forget which)

Stolen Sunday 30th May from Stoke Newington, Allen Road.

I'm suprised we haven't crossed paths rummaging. What do you look like? lolstalkmuch?

Someone bought that Create about 12.30...saw them walking off with it. Had a blue chain, I think.

There was a lime green Genesis Flyer racer about too.

Thanks, any info is great on tracking it down! If you see it again let me know. I'll try and swing by this afternoon...

Anyone missing a blue black and red fort with silver risers, black front and a white rear wheel, or other way round?

On brick lane now, some dude looking very sketchy and uncomfortable on it.
