No pics I picked up a bike from the Police auctions (pallet of parts), it was someones attempt to make their own frame from welded house pipes and such. It was strong enough... well until a car hit me on it popped a few welds and off to the scrap heap it went lol...

aww man, someone stole my pedals!

in the Netherlands all bikes weigh 40lbs. if you have a 35lb bike you only need a 5lb lock. if you have a 15lb bike you need 25lbs of locks.
