Condition of Bicycle / Distinguishing Features:
It stands out with a matte black finish, seafoam green rims and a "Sole" badge on the front post. It's a single-speed with only one hand brake up front. Bike had rubber grips on handles (cracked from weathering), two small, grey racing stripes on the frame, a very tall seat and no reflectors, lights or kickstand. This bike was bought brand new last summer and it still looks mostly new.
Incident Description
Which type of area was your bike stolen from?:
How was the bike locked?:
Only the frame was locked a solid object.
How long was the bike locked in this location?:
For months, ever since I moved in.
Incident Description:
Bike had a U-lock around frame and wooden post of our balcony on the second floor. Our balcony is visible from the alley, and despite having a locked fence around the balcony area, it is scalable. Someone must have seen the bike, climbed the fence, walked up our stairs and simply kicked the wooden post.
If the thief hasn't sawn off the U-lock yet, it will still be around the middle of the frame. I didn't hear or see anything, other than the broken post this morning and no bike. Could have happen July 7 or 8, as I haven't checked my balcony since.
