Maybe you didn't miss the point,
Maybe to save them selves the hassle ...they brought some 4ft bolt croppers and a van, snipped it and thrown it in the back....or...
Please peeps, don't be so so naive? this is a serious business? they approach this with the utmost cunning and bloody mindedness. In bethnal green (wadeson street) my friend had the bike I lent him stolen, they took the whole set of 'keylock' railings and the 6 bikes locked to them, a threw the whole lot into a long wheelbase transit and away.
If they really want to nick it...why worry about the frame? you can cut through a steal frame with a hacksaw in under 2 minutes? you have then a whole bikes worth of spares?
Whatever would make you think they approached this with anything less than total diligence? they are after all 'professional' bike thieves.?
