Here is the stolen beauty

Cheers guys, jonny wasnt referring to previous one being stolen, i broke it, well it was a decathlon and falling apart, bottom bracket. But thats going into the LBS on thursday now probably.

Also only realised this morning that the bike aswell as on a busy road was actually right next to a taxi rank!

Requested a pic off the bloke i bought it from and will be checking out ebay/gumtree and brick lane. It's amazing how many people have said brick lane.

I'm thinking of just redesigning the bike lock, why does it necessarily have to be in a moveable chain or d lock formation. Was thinking that why cant it be like this type of thing

http://dvice.com/archives/2008/06/folding-handleb.php But the bike manafacturers don't really have that much of an incentive in bike security. I think it could be a campaign to get them more interested.

or i was thinking something like a handcuff style but 2 tube interactions as the inbetween instead of chain, one solid and the other around it and two different locking points either handcuff end and with a third locking point inbetween that controls the distance between the two handcuff parts, therefore you start to prevent the amount of easy access that say a bolt cutter or angle grinder has, keeping the bike as tight to the stationary object as possible. I wont do dragons den just yet though!

I'd go with a couple of sets of handcuffs. I saw a bike locked with handcuffs a few weeks ago and thought it was a good idea. Know any coppers?! Or maybe those Army surplus type shops sell them. Theres one on the Kilburn High Road.

the type of person that would put all 3 keys on the same keyring and lose the whole bunch.

I detect the faint aroma of bitter experience??

If it helps, I once dropped all my keys down the drain by my car. All the family sat in the car, miles from home!!!

Got them out in the end

She's a beaut...sorry ...was.

I'll keep an eye out, I tend to graze through Ebay etc on a fairly regular basis.

Will let you know.

Oh and the moat...Its the big deserted pond around the remains' of the manor house in the woods behind the farm. All very spooky


I'm really starting to sound like a stalker here
