What kind of bike is it? I would not be locking a new roadbike in public places.

HowItsMade

exactly that. Point taken, i'll keep it safe.

Don't lock it in a shed. Keep it indoors when at home (2)

and out of view if possible. I never liked the fact a housemate would have his in the extension area, lads climbing walls scoping out houses could easily see it -and so know there is something worth nicking in the house, and then clean out the house too (not just the shed)

Do you really needs to ask about Prius driver... They were saving the environment by not blowing the horn.

Hilarious if he had ran back and the stolen bike he was riding was stolen...

I'd certainly have driven over his back wheel when he abandoned his own bike...

I've seen a few video's on Youtube with the guys going around on scooters looking to take a high-powered motorbikes from riders in broad daylight. Didn't think I'd see similar for a road bike in the middle of London.

Hope the little scrote gave himself a hernia trying to catch up after the first set of lights

Stolen from the shed last night in Lucan. Light grey/Silver colour.

Any news of it would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I'd possibly have been so upset by the event that I'd have missed my brakes and accidentally rear-ended the car with the bike on the back. Would be so sad if the thief got in between.

Maybe he had his own dashcam and wanted to maximise run time?

Had two bikes stolen in Ballsbridge.
First was stolen between May 1st and 18th. It is a Giant Revolt 2, size M. It has 105 gears and dt24 rims.
The second was stolen on 19th of May between 8 and 18. It is a Giant Dash 2 size M. It has tiagra gears. It should have a cut rear wheel since the lock was still left locked to the bike rack.

Both was stolen from our locked bike shed in Ballsbridge.

My new bike has been stolen from my shed. I've previously registered on bikeregister.ie and reported it to them. It's a 2016 model Lapierre Overvolt Shaper. Taken without battery or electronic controller so just a new heavy bike. Mentioning it here in case anyone is offered a cheap deal

Carrier added since picture taken

Delighted to report that my bike was found quickly and returned by the Gardai. A bunch of sheds in my area had been raided that night and the bike was abandoned in bushes not too far away (probably when they realized what a pain it is to cycle without the battery!). Needless to say I am beefing up my security. Heavy chains through the joists, new locks and an alarm in order..

Hi all,

White Claud Butler Urban 500 taken from UCC today 7th June.

Frame number is A********* (i think the first letter is A, the photo I have is dodgy) Brand new chain & rear cogs on it. Rest of the bike has a bit of wear and tear.

Reported to the really helpful security staff at UCC and will be calling to the guards tomorrow too.

Sorry for your loss, but I wouldn't post the frame number here. It is your way of identifying the bike as yours.

Hi,
Second time posting in this thread. Bike was stolen from my apartments's underground carpark on Kevin street. Spoke to someone else who said their bike was stolen too, and it was about a week ago - June 2nd. So I guess mine was taken same time as I hadn't checked on it. White Giant OCR 1. Black tyres with red line in centre.
