Is your bike really your bike?

This article was on the local news website…is this where your stolen bike has been stripped and resold on another legitimate frame…read on

Wonder which shop they are on about?

Big page in the local paper and on the Ealing Times website…

My bike was caught up in this a couple of months ago. Luckily for me everything was fine on mine but not for the guy riding the bike claiming to have my engine in it!

When I first moved to London in the early eighties there was a large sales and servicing shop in Fulham.

Very popular but with a lot of unlucky customers…they suffered a high incidence of theft…

This was probably due to the fact that said workshop copied keys of bikes being serviced and “sold” to people for stripping… Police found a massive amount of bikes waiting to be ripped apart…
