wtf. the sad thing is, you would have to know what you were stealing, so it was probably another enthusiast? maybe? that shi* angers me

iamtim 07-18-08 08:22 AM

teh sux.

11201ny 07-18-08 08:27 AM

it was stolen in downtown NY at around 2am last night. whoever stole it is a lucky mf.

bigbris1 07-18-08 08:34 AM

Was it locked?

11201ny 07-18-08 08:35 AM

if anyone sees it, throw a lock on it and call me.

i'd be more than happy to dish out a reward.

That is a shi--y buzz man. I feel for you, that is one nice bike.

ZiP0082 07-18-08 08:46 AM

sorry to hear it, super clean.

bigbris1 07-18-08 08:47 AM

I'm trying to gauge whether someone saw an opportunity for a free ride or if they cut through a lock to get it.

Naw, man.

I'm sorry for your loss. I instantly went to CL & ebay looking for it. I figured if someone just picked it up outside a store maybe they took it for a joyride & then dropped it somewhere.

But if they cut thru a lock, then they either will sell it whole, for parts, or tape it up & ride it.

I hope you get it back, but can you tell us the complete story?

Good luck getting it back. I had a very similar Panasonic like that back in the 80's, same colour and graphics. What year is that frame?

Wait... Was this locked up in chinatown last week? I saw this and thought to myself, that's too pretty of a bike to be locked up overnight in the street... We were riding to the banks. Saw the Sheriff Stars from a block away. It's gotta be the same bike. Beautiful...

I'll post it on the nyc boards for you...

11201ny 07-18-08 12:52 PM

please post this up wherever you can. it's a pretty noticeable bike.

again, if anyone sees this bike please throw a lock on it & call me.

Why did you lock it up overnight? And why weren't the wheels locked? When I saw it, it was locked to the top tube to a sign post along a busy street...

Not trying to rub it in, just lock it up better when you get it back.

it's ALWAYS locked with two ulocks. i never leave it outside overnight.

johnprolly 07-18-08 01:29 PM

Ok sorry... I wasn't trying to be an a sshole. My apologies. Just saying when I saw it, it was late. I'll keep my eyes peeled.

deathhare 07-18-08 01:34 PM

If you need a replacement, let me know. :)

11201ny 07-18-08 02:30 PM

looks like i'll be starting from scratch.

Catnap 07-18-08 02:37 PM

harsh!!! i live in the LES / Chinatown area, will definitely let you know if i ever see this bike on the streets.

na975 07-18-08 04:08 PM

whenever i come across a really nice bike locked up, i really want to admire it but then i think to myself maybe the owner is watching me thinking i'm up to no good.

novacane 07-18-08 04:10 PM

ill keep an eye out even though nyc is FREAKING HUGE
