    Cheers bigben, really appreciate the help, I got my brother to head down that way as soon as he could and see what was about..have to say that I haven't heard back from him, but can't help but think that with the amount of people checking out bikes constantly on this forum that it might be seen again! (feeling slightly optimistic today I guess ha)
    The bars are the biggest give away I suppose, so might be doubtful that they'll still be on it, it also had half clips, but easy enough to take off and make it look like any other retro racer etc I do know every part/have photos of the build so anything similar that comes anyones way I would be grateful for the update. Thanks again ben and cheers for anyone who keeps an eye out for any/all these nicked bikes...

    The bike was somewhere on upper street in islington when it got nicked. Don't know the place at all so can't really be much more help than that..thought it was worth posting on here just in case it gets seen somewhere. Can't imagine anyone putting in the effort of taking it apart or painting it, it's not worth it, so it will probably be exactly the same. Cheers for the help any way!

    Hi Louis, I think the bike was nicked from upper street in islington..not too used to the area or lonfon at all really so any pointers as to anywhere that might be in the business of selling dodgey bikes would be great. The bike isn't worth much but spent a lot of hours buffering/degreasing! So wouldn't mind finding the idiot whos now enjoying it..

    Hi guys and gals,

    No idea where to post this, but thought it would be worth a (very long) shot on here. Built a bike up for my brother and less than a month letter some little crap has nicked it. its pretty distinctive I guess, nothing too special but be hard to miss it, so if anyone sees it around or anything similar then please give us a bell on here. I'm in leeds but the bike/brother are somewhere in london. Cheers in advance for any help..tim

    still can't PM, how much would you knock off for collection? I'm in leeds, but can get to manc anytime this weekend really (free tomorrow?), or if that doesn't suit you I can get someone there to pick it up another time possibly..
