Some little toe rag probably doesn't know what he's riding around on but he had the balls to walk the full length of the shop pick it up and walk out!!
Call me 07828213969

being a little toerag myself, i have no idea what a pronghorn is…..

but i will google it and keep my eyes open and get the yoof's to watch for it as well.

he had the balls to walk the full length of the shop pick it up and walk out!!

And none of the staff challenged him !!! 😯

a pic would be useful.

guessing the shop dont have cctv, but what about amersham high street?

Thats the thing nobody saw anyone! Like it disappeared into thin air http://www.pronghornracing.co.uk/

It wasn't me! But I'll keep my eyes peeled.

nightmare – sorry to hear that. the King Prawn is a great bike, been riding a demo one for a week or two and very imprssed with it.

wow, not exactly a common bike either, hope it was not a customers bike. I had my bike nicked from down the road in HW the police were beyond useless.

Is it me or does the amount of scally activity in the area seem to be rising? Burnt out car at the bottom of Holloyway Lane and noticed a few big lumps of concrete dumped in the middle of the road while I was out on the bike sunday night….

If it was nicked from the shop I assume it was insured, or does it have to be locked up to be covered like a home insurance policy ?

Don't know if it is specifically your area i think it is the whole band around greater london, more scum there than in the whole of London. If the opportunity arises thump them, it's the only language they understand.

i would head to bricklane on a sunday there is always bikes for sale up there!!

most come from surrounding areas (so i have been told)

not insured as you say has to be locked down! I reckon it was an oppotunist as it was the only bike in the shop that had pedals fitted.

My parents live in Amersham, and it's one place I didn't expect to see on a thread like this. Is this type of thing becoming more of an issue in the area?

I live just down the road, will keep eyes peeled!

I'm in the general area as well – will keep an eye out. Is it the one with the funky ball catching top tube shock?

yep thats the one "the king prawn nut cracker"

If the bike was in the shop for repair then it is down to the shop. Once they have accepted the bike, they have a responsibility to ensure it is safe.

If however you took it in with you, then i have no idea??

While obviously bike theft is rubbish, I have a sneaking admiration for the brass balls involved here…

took it in with me to meet with the rep .So in effect I had not taken it to the shop
