Ya, I know a U lock would be better, it happened in the middle of the day with people everywhere, anyways found this site because now I'm looking for a new bike, that bike was made in Italy conversion I did 5 years ago, now it's hard to find a bike to convert, for $600 or less do you have any suggestions? I've looked at a few, from a Fuji Track Comp to a Specialized Langster (made in Taiwan), Tommasso (no thanks, made in China and seemed cheap) also IRO, Kilo stripper, etc, what's good?
