Got any pics? Provisionally interested.

Posting here as I had a chance to go down to Nine Elms market this morning to have a look for my own stolen bike. I found large numbers of fat blokes in tracksuits in possession of gear that was far too light and aero to be of any use to them. Carbon wheels, nice frames, complete bikes and a few nice components there so definitely head down there if your bike gets pinched. Much much bigger than Brick Lane and has an air of lawlessness that's hard to put in to words but possibly a good stop if you're trying to recover a bike.

Just bumping this with an update. Finally found time to head down to Nine Elms Market this morning and I don't really know how to describe it other than the most brazenly criminal setup I've ever seen...

Lots of nice looking kit being sold at a few different stalls. One thing that particularly caught my eye was a guy in a tracksuit selling a pair of pro branded deep section wheels along with an old Cervelo P3 frame and a new-ish white S-Works tarmac frame. Said the wheels were up for £800 so clearly knows a thing or two about what he's stealing/selling. If anyone's missing said items could be worth checking out and it's a good spot to know if your bike gets pinched.

Looks good but I'm going to keep looking for the real thing, thanks.

In the title. Looking for a standard Arione, nothing fancy and doesn't have to be mint.

Wrong thread .

Would you take a F+F split? PM me if interested

3rd dibs (pending price)

Still for sale?

I am using it for now I'm afraid!

Will take the Dolan and come pick it up Saturday if it's still available?

Hi guys, looking to replace my old track frame with a new one and thought I'd give a Chinese carbon one a go. Am hoping that there might be someone here who's ridden one for a while, upgraded and now looking to sell. I'm London based so let me know!

Will take the rear if not sold

Or if you want slightly more for your money, you can get some nice aero wheels for £400 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Fashion-Man-700C-Road-Bike-21-Speed-Road-Bicycle-Cycling-SD-004

Highlights include:

'Frame: High Density Carbon Steel Frame'
'Saddle: Professional Bike Seat'
'Weight: 16KG'

Mate of mine showed me this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/181784369830. Two questions:

1. Who buys this stuff, it's not even cheap?

2. Anyone feel like buying one and reviewing it for our pleasure?

Thanks again for suggestions, I've got alerts up everywhere so if it appears on the internet I should hear about it! I'm going to stick some flyers out as well on the off chance that someone sees it kicking about in South London. Half expecting it to turn up on a Monday night at HHV at some point which might be a bit awkward...

Thanks for your responses guys, I'm going to keep my eyes peeled in the area and check out those markets.

And yeah it is sad that this stuff is tolerated but I think the problem lies with people who are all too happy to buy without any proof of ownership. Neither of the sellers of the above bikes knew anything about them and it got quite tense when I asked for a recipt and where they'd bought the bikes!

Hi guys,

I recently had my beloved Felt TK2 burgled from my friend's house and I've started the depressing process of trying to recover it. The classic advice is to head down to Brick Lane Market to find it so off I went at 0630 this morning to try my luck. I arrived at the market at around 0700 and there wasn't much around. I stayed until 0915 (mainly on Sclater and Cheshire Street) and didn't see anyone selling stolen bikes out of the back of vans.

One extremely shady looking guy offered me a bike (Cross frame pictured, just in case it belongs to anyone) that was leant up against the fence and I noticed an almost mint 58cm CaadX with Tiagra kit (also pictured) being advertised for £200 for sale from the regular bike sales and servicing stall which I assume is also stolen as it looked almost new.

My question is then, has anywhere else sprung up as a marketplace for stolen bikes? Mine was pinched from SW9 and is probably never going to show up again but I'm going to keep looking as it's a nice bike and it's worth someone's time to try and sell it.

My Felt TK2 was nicked from inside a friend's flat in the Stockwell area at 0200 this morning. It's got destickered Mavic Ellipse wheels, a black Fizik Arione saddle and silver Sram Omnium cranks. The photos are a bit out of date but you get the idea. :(

Call xxxxx if you've got info for a £100 reward

I am now all sorted, consider this thread closed.

Drops still available?
