Stolen:
Create front wheel
Reynolds Ouzo Comp carbon fork with SKS mudguard attached
Pro short road stem with choped and floped bars with white fizik tape
Rear fixed touring wheel (Black Mavic A119 laced to Novatec hub (like on-one))
It was badly locked in front of Lee's Salon on Kingsland High St. Hoxton (frame only), out of my sight and in sight of the council estate across the road. Just left it there for an hour or so on Sunday when I had lunch with my girlfriend.
I'm gonna report it to the police and the "anti-bike-theft-brigade". But if you see these items being sold or ridden, please keep me informed.
I don't really care that much about these items as they don't represent a huge sum of money invested, but the fork was graciously given to me and the rear wheel was the first wheel I ever built. I appologise for the bad locking, I was still chocked that someone just turned up during my lunch and stripped by bike bare in broad daylight on a passing street without anyone giving a shit.
So if there is any chance of getting back at the bastards, I will take as far as I legally can.
Thanks for letting me rant here :) I feel much better now.
I now need a cheap front fork quite urgently. I have 75 sapim spokes in the post for my other build I'm now going to have to rush to stop being a pedestrian/bus user :(
