    Perhaps someone who over bought and then thought ‘crap, I only get 50% of their value secondhand so I’ll get them stolen’ but didn’t want to go the whole hog with their insurance scam?

    I thought all northern towns were slightly down at heel….

    I thought the North was black and white.

    Was there a large box above them propped up by a stick with a length of string tied to it? If so it might be a police sting operation!

    … and whoever did the bar tape on that cube should be ashamed. Maybe that’s why they want rid.

    It’s weird, hope x2 brakes? To much front cake, rear needs house mount aligned properly, Saint cranks? Extra long post and xc tyres.

    I used to see a late middle aged man on a Kona Stab, full roads dept high vis and fag attached. Must have been a tactical chunder when he got to work as it was set up SOFT.

    Saddle position on kona no good for peddling.
    I sold a Specialized Big Hit with Sunn double wide rims & steel cranks etc. to a guy who wanted a ‘commuter that’ll give me a work out!’
    Yes, this bike will do that!

    If they do get stolen the police will come looking for the dodgey bloke who was seen taking photos of them a few hours earlier. 😉
