Thieves broke in to the Dray Walk Gallery just off Brick Lane at approximately 3:30AM and stole six high-end and very rare bikes as well as a Lynskey Titanium frame from the Hotlines London show. All of the bikes that were stolen are very rare and as such should be easily recognised. Anyone providing information leading to the retrieval of the bikes will be rewarded. A description of the bikes that were stolen as well as photos are shown below. If you have any information that you believe may help please either e-mail info@hotlines-uk.com or call the Hotlines office on 0131 319 1444.

Back of a van and out of the country I bet. Motherflickers 🙁
Not surprised, sadly.

Crikey, some lovely bikes there.
🙁
Don’t the Met have carbon sniffer dogs they could put on the trail?
Weird that they took 5 really high end bikes and then that ghost?
Wot no all night security guard? In the east end?
dikfarts for not taking the Mega 🙂
OOowww er missus! They’re sure pretty, love the Zesty
Actually no, the ghost 🙂
Pics of the actual bikes, including the nuke proof build, looks like a honey: http://www.bikeradar.com/news/article/thieves-steal-bikes-worth-thousands-from-hotlines-london-show–28074
damn thieves 🙁
There are a lot of scumbags out there taking the piss and costing us all time, money and hardship. Sad to say that the way things have been ordered by the powers that be, not least of whom is a certain Mr Clarke MP of the suede shoes (make sure they get wages when they are in the nick, WTF???), bollock all will be done to dissuade them.
Mind you Lynskey are probably glad to see the back of that Helix frame, looks like they made a real hash of the top and down tubes!
Ironic really as they probably could have bought it all even cheaper through chain reaction
they should of shown them @ cycle show were everyone else were !
Not hard to spot really as none of the bikes are available on retail yet.
