Good job it didn't end up going to any of our local tips as it would have gone straight into the crusher

Might it possibly be a stolen bike that has been stripped of the items required and then disposed of? The only identifiable part being the frame which is numbered.
Who throws things like that away ?
I'm stunned.

Just a thought.
went to the local dump and this was there so bought it for a crazy price
At our local tip, in Ilfracombe, they've got anything worth having laid out, car boot style. They'll even give you a receipt.If that's a council dump they're not supposed to sell what's deposited, I've tried previously to do this but usually get turned down. I think they may loose their job if they do, however if you offer enough and do it surreptitiously they may just accept.
Some Norfolk tips have Reuse Shops and the staff will persuade people to donate anything they think they can sell, rather than throw it in the various skips.If that's a council dump they're not supposed to sell what's deposited, I've tried previously to do this but usually get turned down.
