This was for sale on Albany St last week. Not cool. Seems to be the same fella bringing the bikes down each week CoppiThat. Do you know the chap I mean?

There has definitely been a rise in bike thefts in SE8 recently. Also not cool. Sorry to hear about your loss Arben. I will keep my eyes open.

EDIT: Just seen you got it back. Our local police are pretty good with bike theft from my personal experience.

guy from my work just emailed to say his bike was missing it's wheels from the parking garage in his building, he lives just off creek road.

A very close friend of mie had their Ciocc stolen from their flat in Newington Green last night. I don't have a pic or a full description but here's what I know

Black Ciocc Aluminium 56cm Road bike Alu forks
Yellow decals and a Dutch shop sticker on the top tube "(shop name) TweeWeilers".
Full Campag 9sp Centaur or Veloce silver Groupset
Yellow Selle Italia saddle
Yellow bar tape
Unsure of the rims either Open Pros or Ambrosio box section.

Please keep an eye out.

PM me if you see anything.

Cheers

We need to have a chat offline about this.

Can someone remind me of the website that shows all the bikes for sale one gumtree and all the others in one place please?

my blue Peugeot was stolen yesterday on Hackney road and I'd like to report it to the local police who deal with these matters

Sorry to hear that, Ben.

Just had my vintage Peugeot bike stolen outside the costcutter on 246 Hackney road, at the junction with Queensbridge road, opposite the Marksman pub.

it's a 61 cm two tone dark and light blue reynolds 753 steel frame, the words 'hand brazed' are written in yellow on the top tube, the word 'Chorus' next to the 753 decal on the top tube is covered with a world champion stripe sticker. It's built up with full 7410 series Dura Ace groupset, including a 100mm quill stem, AX series handlebars, mavic open SUP rims, black Time ATAC pedals, black stripped flite saddle, black leather bar tape, if you see slap a lock on it and call zero7952 six96796.

Stupidly I hadn't locked it just leant it against the railing as I was just inside for 2 seconds, that's all it took, the thief must have been watching me go inside.

Thanks.

Here's a picture of the frame:

ouch. gutted mate... make sure you set loads of gumtree alerts up too. unlucky-hope it pops up.

Hello! I had my bike stolen from outside SOAS on Saturday night. It was a black Specialized hybrid Carmel WITH a new black metal basket that I had added (unlikely to be on such a bike) and the cheapest back light u can find (also unlikely on such a bike) I know nothing about bikes but I have decided to get it back literally no matter what it takes... It is my dads, he doesnt know its been taken!..yet :/ and if anyone knows, do you think its too late to go to brick lane/london fields to check? and where exactly do I go?

Thank you lovely bike people!
Scarlett

Just had my red vintage peugeout bike stolen from outside West Hampstead thameslink station on the main road, west end lane...locked it to a sign on friday...had to leave london for the weekend without having chance to take it back home, it was gone by Monday evening.

These are the wheels I had fitted just a week before... http://www.lfgss.com/thread83021.html (in case anyone sees them) hoping to get a picture of the bike from the guy I bought it off, don't have on myself. Gutted...I hate the tube!!

Obviously feel stupid for leaving it there over the weekend but it couldn't be helped this time. If anyone sees someone trying to flog it on a street corner let me know! It has untaped drop handlebars, black padded saddle, flip flop hub with only a SS, a faded red chain (sorry, it came with it)...nothing fancy but it was mine, y'know?

I really liked my bike! Spoke to police, gave statement, got crime ref number, wasn't really worth insuring, sad.

Lesson learned?

As you left it at the station, worth asking PoPo's about CCTV coverage, Guards in the Station if they may have seen anything.

If you've any photos for easy ident that's also a huge help to people riding/walking past a potential seller.
Have you checked Gumtree/Bay of many Fleas?

anyone lost a plug?

My saddle just got stolen today :(. It was parked outside St Pauls Church Robert Adam street from 1845 to 2130.

It's a black Brooks saddle with big copper rivets which has been modified to look like a swallow. There are 3 black cable ties on the bottom holding the flaps together. Along with it was a rear light attached with 2 white cable ties, my NC-16 microadjust seatpost 27.2mm and an SKS X-tra dry mudguard in black.

Unfortunately it's not distinguishable in that sense, so probably won't be able to recover it.

Came back to my bike on Kingsland road last night to find the bolt removed from my Paul E brake lever. Spoke to a taxi driver and said some shady bloke was having a go at it.

Is nothing safe on a bike these days...

Yes it's sad...Thanks for your advice Orko, the police suggested I speak to the station staff about their CCTV and I plan to put up a photo as soon as I find one...it's not come up on thief-bay or glumtree yet either...I'm not holding my breath either way.

^ no pic yet, davidg? this my area. though could be not a local opportunist.

^ My area too, will look out for it.

Appreciate it! This isn't mine but it is the same frame, mine was SS with a flip flop hub but it only has a freewheel. It also doesn't have bar tape but does have a crap faded red chain. Thanks for your help
