Hi Guys and Gulls,
My back garden has been attacked by most likely organized group of thieves on the night between the 26sep and 27sep between 11pm and 7am.
They broke into a neighbours garden (end terrace) jumped over into my one (next house to end terrace) and took 4 bikes all locked one to another with 1 krypto new york 18mm lock, 1 krypto new york 16mm lock and with a magnum 14mm chain to a shed.
Bikes were not at all visible from the street as the neighbours fence is around 7ft tall brick wall.
I suspect this was tipped of by someone in the neighbourhood or so. Noone heard anything including myself
4 Very nice bikes have been taken:
1) Specialized singleecross 58cm. rear wheel is a dp 18 bblack rim on ON-ONE hub while the front wheel was a white deep v type rim on quando hub with red tyre on.
2) Condor 49cm orange fixie with lime green deep profile rims on silver formulas with blue tyres. sugino chainset, selle LDY saddle, yellow tape. real eye catcher. since picctured the tyres were changed to blue ones.
3) Small 50cm gitane fixie. powder coated in pink with orange bullhorns. white deep v type wheels with red tyres
4) Giant OCR2 roady . 61cm. red tyres sora triple chainset ( new type sora), 105 9 speed cassette and mech, Tiagra STIs ultegra front mech. orange bar tape. don't have a pic of this one but the pic shown bellow is exactly the same giant as this one was exceept the orange bar tape and red tyres.
I expect some of these bike to be offered for sale in London or eventually Oxford in the next couple of weeks. Some of you may also spot them being ridden around.
If you spot them PM me please :-)
Any kind of information will be gratefully appreciated
