Well, this one was pretty easy for the thief. Only needed a wrench. I wasn't going to be at work for more than a couple hours so I didn't have my rear wheel leash. I actually very rarely use one (stupidly, I know). The massive tuff stuff chain on the quick release front and through the frame had been enough of a deterrent until now.

defenbacher, this is what a quick release lever is for:

1. release front wheel.
2. move to rear.
3. using lock, LOCK UP BOTH WHEELS AND THE FRAME!

or

ride to the park, remove front wheel, play disc golf with said wheel.

Full mea culpa. I was dumb. Learned lesson. Very dumb. What's done is done. Just trying to get back on the road.

and good luck to you on that one. sorry to hear you got thefted.

thanks man.

endgame on this - bikeworks rules. built me up a great everyday use wheel w/ open sports, decent hub, tire+tube, cog+lockring for $160. Real nice.

No dissin' trackstar, bikeworks is just closer to my house. Thanks for the recs everyone. Nice to know I can just ride over the bridge to get out of bike shop hell.

D00d.1 it's TRACKstar, not I bought this frame off craigslist star.
