#seatacursesrrikesagain good luck in finding it again.

It was double locked to what I thought was a secure bike stand. Turns out the just had to unscrew the bolts holding it to the concrete slab. Not sure why it's designed like that.
Neil it looks exactly like that. The other lock was a krypto with not a mm of space through frame and front wheel. It's the reason the ingeniously just unscrewed the bolts.Iain, do you know who errected the bike stand? Whether it is a council owned one or one on private property you should contact the owner and let them know that the facilities they have invested in are not fit for purpose. Itwon't help you get it back but could stop somone else going through a similar ordeal.

Already in motion. It's private new build. I'm not happy. And I'm so tired.

There was some special parts on that build so hopefully if they appear on a certain auction site they'll be quickly spotted by someone on here

It was certainly super light...not so sure about the latter.
I was speaking more with regards to was it found/covered by insurance?

It's not about the bike! Heavy bike will make you fitter anyway, think of it as cycle weightlifting ;)

If it makes it any better Iain, I'm undertaking building super light super safe mkII in memory of yours...

Insurance paid out most of it.

Wasn't planning a thread tbh, got most of it together already.
Need to weigh what I've got before I commit, not sure I can afford to go full chainbreaker on it!

I say start a thread. A good record for others to use. That's the point of this one. If one cuts out the bullshit this has some value. And so would yours!
Or you could just add it to this one?

Well, I don't to be rubbing salt in a wound.
I'll have to see how I'm doing first, mad a first mistake in a heavy (540g) fork, other than that, plastic frame, plastic post/stem/bars... ambrosio tubs...
We'll see.
My stumbling block is going to be chainset.
