    stolen from baltic place car park on kings land road last night, had just done it up for a mate, he delayed on picking it up, and now its gone.... checked brick lane but nothing. gimme a PM if you see it, has gold/yellow cello bar tape now...

  • I've been following this thread extensively over the past summer when I debated if it makes sense to get a bike here in London or not (eventually I decided pro bike :))

    Anyway, that doesn't matter. 15 mins ago I was offered a white racing bike in front of Maplin in Camden Town. The boy, who pushed it around, offered it to basically everyone who passed by, even me - a girl in heels (perfect customer for a huge men's' racing bike). He walked up towards Camden lock with the bike. I took a photo but cannot manage to upload it from my phone - I uploaded it on my Flickr "juliakeder".

    Hope someone recognizes their gem! :)

  • Thanks, Doktor, very helpful! :)

  • Little bastard needs a slap.

  • looks like a create or something similar..

  • How much did he want for it?

  • Obviously realised its brake less hence pushing.

  • Well done, Poirot.

  • Maybe he can offer it to more people while pushing?
    To be fair, he does look a bit a type to ride that bike.

  • I think doktor is probably right actually. Cant sell it if riding it!

  • He only asked if people were interested and said he needs to sell it, but everyone rushed by, so I didn't hear him saying a price.

  • Ask him if he's a police officer.

  • @bodie
    he was like 16 and walked with a bunch of even younger kids (the one on the scooter was certainly not older than 12), i've got my doubts that MET operates this way :D

  • Ask him if he has a receipt.

  • I've had no luck finding the fuji :(. Could someone post a link to the site that searches auction sites such as ebay and gumtree for your stolen bike? thanks in advance.

  • bikeshd.co.uk

    hope you find it...

  • thanks hms still no luck so far though :(

  • Only managed to get my bike nicked from outside Kick Bar in Shoreditch at the weekend on me birthday, too drunk to cycle home I decided to leave it till this morning to find someone had nabbed it :(

    As this is my only bike at the moment as I have sold all my others to fund my cycle across the america next I am pretty gutted :/ (www.cycling-south.co.uk)

    The box makes it pretty recognizable so hopefully someone has seen it ....

  • nothing new, as its been mentioned before above, but for those who cant be arsed reading - http://www.bikeshepherd.org

    heard some stories about "found" bikes through them

  • Hey guys, a fellow redditer suggested I post this up here.
    First, didn't know that you guys were a thing, awesome. Looking forward to being a part of the community.

    Secondly, my bike was stolen on the weekend(Oct 14th 2012) - Not Awesome.

    Here is my bike, photo-tuned to make the grips orange. This is the current colour.

    I live around the blackheath standard area (SE3) Now, I almost caught the punk who stole it, but damn son my bike is fast and those rear carbon triangles make it quick off the line.

    I have made a police report, so if it turns up somewhere they should get it back to me. But, they probably have better things to do.

    So, I turn to you; the great community of cyclists. I built this bike from the frame up. I love it, and I would really want it back. It's not amazing, but I made it.

    Thanks guys and girls.

  • Hi,

    My black Mercier was stolen from outside Lock 7 bike shop at Broadway market yesterday.

    Bought the frame from ericfox on here:

    Thanks.

  • Hi All.

    Please help I really gutted. Had my lovely Condor stolen on Saturday from my house Wick rd. It's unusual so I hope to recover. It's a black large frame 62cm with Large extensions added to the lugs see photo attached.

    Nitto drop bar

    Nitto stem

    Ambrossio rims

    Miche hubs

    My saddle was stolen 2 weeks before... So it was actually a Turbo matic fitted with campag aero seat post.

    Please let me know if you spot this reward offered. Any help much appreciated.

    Thanks.

  • Hey guys

    Probably the same f**kers who took mine from Blackheath area a few days ago - see upthread.

    Hope you get it back..

  • Thanks HMS, I'll keep an eye out for yours.

    I sent a description of the rider to police report, so they may find him.

    Hope you get yours back
