This made me angry:
This used to be my bike and I sold it to a mate last year. Last night I left my bike locked next to his outside his house. Got a text this morning saying I might want to move my bike somewhere safer. Utterly pointless theft... it was right outside his window and all they got was just a just a generic set of handlebars, a 6year old pair of Sora shifters that have had a hard life and some battered bar tape.
Lucky escape for me but clearly ignorant thieves - my bike was parked next to his and was only recently overhauled with new BB, crankset, chain, rear sprocket, levers, tape, cables etc. I'd guess just my cranks are worth more than his whole bike.
[sorry, just a rant]
