  • will someone liberate it? itd make someone a nice spangly frame

  • There's a Carloton Road bike locked up on my way home from work with the back wheel stoved in. I'm hoping it will soon be abandoned. If the lock goes and the bike is left behind that's good to go right?

  • Who really doesnt like their Alu Langster, its been stripped to bits outside LCB top of brick lane, frame the only thing left, still locked up after at least 6weeks or so.

    did the langster look like this?

    Amazing!

  • it was finished in silver

  • hello ive got my specialized frame for sale in good condition and very light wight
    and i fink it will be a good project for someone the reason im selling is because some theives striped my bike while i was at work and all i got left with is the frame
    thanks for reading if ur intresting call me on 07
    i am especially missing the wheels which were specifically beutiful.

  • Been tempted to go liberate this myself, its been there for weeks. Always makes me wonder, why go to the effort of stripping the whole thing (which requires some fairly specific tools and time) rather than cut a lock. Thieves baffle me sometimes.

  • Who's is this then? It's been locked up on the corner of Fulham/Fulham Palace Rd for months... rusty chain etc.

  • Has it def never moved? - seems like a strange bike to abandon.

  • Mine.....under cover of darkness..!!

  • Nope, hasn't moved as far as I'm aware for months. Very rusty chain + wheels nuts, but otherwise in damn good nick. It's locked with a yellow krypto (not a Fag)

  • Haha I see that every morning! The chain is fucked.

  • I have seen that before - always assumed it was just parked there for the day - its outside a sex shop isnt it?

  • Something like that. I think it's been there for over a year but I may be wrong. I remember it "always being there".

  • Haha** I see that every morning**! The chain is fucked.

    Max, stop trying to cover your tracks your dirty perv.

  • Something like that.

    Problem officer?

  • put chalk on one of the tyres. If the chalk is still in the same place after a few days, its abandoned.

  • That's just clever

  • So if I lock my bike somewhere and leave it for a few days I've abandoned it?!

    If we're talking weeks or months that's one thing.

  • unless it rains.

  • In London?!

  • ha ^

    They've locked up both wheels and the frame with decent locks. I doubt that's abandoned. I work in a pub on the corner of New Kings Rd and Fulham High Street so go past this junction most nights at about 1am. Personally, I've never noticed it there. I thnk it's just a daytime thing.

  • That's the thing. Is it there at any given time or all the observations were made during the morning commute? Perhaps the owner doesn't wake up before midday?

    So he/she's a student?
