September 2, 20169 yr Stolen out of my shed on Tuesday 30th August, With an On-Guard bulldog lock still around the frame. Frame markings HAY7A450+1 AV15606544 Not exactly as the picture anymore, Now has : Schwalbe marathon Plus (road) tyres plume roll out mudguard Charge spoon seat Muckynuts Fenders no stickers on the wheels / forks no battery thanks for looking.
September 2, 20169 yr Sad news. Was it attached to something? My bike is chained to the stair ramp. It is a wooden ramp but if you get the saw out to cut it I might hear you and come down for a quiet chat. You will recognize me, I'm the one with the baseball bat...
September 2, 20169 yr Author Yeah shame people can't have nice things they work hard for, it was , in the shed attached to a pole screwed in the back wall, they opened it, quietly, went away then came back and unscrews it all, the lock was still attached to the frame when they lifted it over the fence, I heard that and was 30 seconds behind them but didn't see which way they went so didn't find them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
September 2, 20169 yr Good luck with the chase, it will be on a site soon enough unless they had a buyer lined up beforehand. Next time chain it to the lawnmower! An alarm on the shed door is easy to rig. I know it is inconvenient having a padlock on the garden shed door but we live in dangerous times... I am buying a second lock for the front wheel, battery and saddle/seat post. Inconvenient but my bike is my car can't afford to lose it.
September 2, 20169 yr Author Yeah I know there are loads of things I should have done, I do have a lock on the shed but as its a summer house style with glass panes door the door is a little flimsy, second lock, alarm, more robust security screws or angle grind the screw heads off of the pole fitting etc, and also, my bike is (was) my commute transport, the underground sucks [emoji1] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
September 3, 20169 yr Easy to give advice after the event. It is still theft you are a victim of crime. You will feel lots of different emotions, it is nothing you have or have not done you are a victim. Sorry you lost a lovely bike.
September 3, 20169 yr With an On-Guard bulldog lock still around the frame. I use locks too, and chain it up to something heavy or fixed. Although, locks don't deter scrotes. They just delay them, if you're lucky. We believe that we were 'probed' a few weeks ago at around midnight. My On-Guard GSD is always on the ball with intrusion, he sleeps on a door mat (well, more of a 'lies in wait' job really) facing the entrance to my garage, where my bikes are secured. His work fee is a bowl of kibble daily and a good run. You can't get a better lock for less than that. I'm sorry for your loss and I'll keep my eyes peeled for it. Look close to home for the culprit(s).. Someone who sees you going in and out with it. Someone who knows where it's kept. A green eyed monster that coveted your prized possession. If you were fortunate enough to have insurance, you'll just get a crime number from the old Bill. Me, I'd be knocking doors, questioning people and using my lie detectors on the local scumbags. Anyway, this thread has motivated me to set up my spare cam as a security cam. I'll just plug it in facing the back gate and let it roll and roll and hopefully I'll never need to review the video it records. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_8Ez9q6Mag
September 3, 20169 yr Done! A 20 quid cam plugged into the wall. Rolling recorded, 24 hour surveillance. How is it in the dark? Probably not as good as Muttley is. But the garden security light will come on anyhow. Hopefully, it will only be next doors cat that sets it off.
September 3, 20169 yr Author Nice lock [emoji1] I got a crime number and am now trying to negotiate the insurance mine field. It was covered but there is an excess so it will actually cost me money. I have cctv of them but it's at night and even with the pir light coming on in the garden he didn't bat an eyelid. I'll Keep an eye on eBay, gumtree, sphock etc as its pretty recognisable Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
September 3, 20169 yr I have cctv of them but it's at night and even with the pir light coming on in the garden he didn't bat an eyelid. I'd have had that online by now. Someone will know and ID them, often a fellow scrote for a handout, Good luck Deejc.
September 3, 20169 yr Author It's on Facebook on my friends accounts as I don't have one and the police have it so hopefully it'll help, I'm not too bothered by it you know, but my wife it affects more as we have a little Kid and that's what gets me most is that it isn't just them nicking a bit of metal which it is, it's that they cause unseen problems.

September 3, 20169 yr I've had motorcycles stolen from garage, if they want something they will get along all the security (They weren't that easy to steal, but still did). One thing I did extra after was a baby monitor in the garage.

March 9, 20224 yr I have information of your old ebike Haibike Hard seven. Send me a mail. Mvh Johan Generally better not to post your email address directly on a forum. Probably several spammers will have it anyway, but it just helps you collect more .... I suggest you edit that post and communicate (at least initially) by private message on the forum.
September 1, 20223 yr Any update? Was the bike found? I know where the bike is. But the Police hehe in sweden have sold the bike forward
October 9, 20223 yr Well it was stolen six years ago and it's likely the owner has moved on years ago, hasn't been on this forum for years either, the bike is in Sweden you say? l guess it's possible, but would it be worth recovering it after all this time?
October 12, 20223 yr These type of stolen activities can be easily solved using a GPS tracker. Though it's a manual or an electrical bike gps tracker facilitates you with the latest technology to track your bike where ever it goes. I recently selected Matrack for my tracking needs.
