  • ^ what a p..

    Nah, a bit harsh. I just don't get how you fit a shackle lock round that lot?

  • brakeless too.

    this made me laugh;

    space-age bike

  • Doesn't lock his quick release front wheel though does it!

  • In covent garden last week;

  • un-fucking-believable

  • talk about more money than sense.

  • at least he wears a helmet.....

  • helmet goes real swell with 'is bike.

  • Is it me, or does the seat stay look broken!

  • Thing is I bet he's insured out of his ass and its just a production bike so if it gets nicked it will be replaced 2 weeks later with a better model as the insurance companies get a discount on the stock =/

    Its shit but I bet thats how he's thinking.

  • nick it then. everyone's a winner.

  • dibs

  • Proper tempted to photoshop out the wheels as an 'after' pic.

  • To be fair his frame is locked reasonably. I know magnum locks are not the best but theyre not total shit, and at least its not a cable.

    Im not sure about the insurance thing too, as most insurance companies wont cover stolen parts. (His wheels and handlebars are most likely to be pinched).

  • ^ Fuck me.

  • when will people learn to put the lock through the frame not just the spokes? noticed these in the same day.

  • Outside Decathlon at Surrey Quays. Plenty of people around, but no one seemed to be keeping an eye on it.

    To me they are similar to ghost bikes.

    Lest we forget.

    Two times out of the last three I have been there I have spoken to someone who has just had their bike stolen.

    The thief's hang around innocently playing table tennis waiting for people to lock up badly.

    Considering the standard of locks that decathlon sell, I'm not surprised bike thieves make it a hangout.

  • Saw the is in Cabot circus in Bristol, which is the city centre main shopping area. The Lock is just resting in top of the frame.

  • Wow, I'd like to see the person cycling along with those round to his/hers kneck.

    Those are Object's new piercing BOs...

    I know, I hate that phrase, so they are saying it was invented some point after the 60s...

  • Under a block of flats in Leipzig. Of all the bikes there, around 30% were freelocked, the rest weren't locked at all.

    The response to my disbelief: "Everyone's got a bike, why would they want to steal one?"
