A meeting of a new neighbourhood watch group last night, and someone said a local German had had his bike stolen, but because it was individually painted and had his name engraved on it, the Gardaí got it back the next day. And (on something of the same theme) a friend who's particularly stuck at the moment, work having dried up, had her quick-release bike wheel quick-released by some nasty little thief. She's been quoted €40 for a new wheel and this just isn't possible for her right now. Is there a motherlode of secondhand wheels somewhere where I could pick one up for her at a reasonable price? (I don't know the size or even the bike model yet.)

Chuchote wrote: » Ah, but how does the would-be thief know that I have taken such note? The Gardaí told the person who told us this that having your name engraved is off-putting for thieves, because the bike is too clearly one person's property. (And of course I'll take note of the serial number, I'm not an idiot )
