He says the lock was a 'magnum' - now cut through he says it has coiled wire inside a metal tube inside plastic coating. Sounds like the lock was the problem ? Certainly not a big Abus. Problem is though it was cut through with something powerful so sounds like it wouldn't have made a difference what it was.

Yes it's the one near the video shop i think. Hackney road end of Broadway Market just as you go into the street. Sells all those fancy beers in funny shaped glasses. It was yesterday afternoon about 3 ish so might have been pretty quiet but expect still quite a lot of people about as it's always busy enough. It was brand new and shiny, he said still had all the stickers on ! As you can imagine he's well pissed off. Will find out what the lock was....

Friends Specialized Globe 2008 58cm frame. Not a fixed but absolutly brand spanking new. Less than 24 hours old !! First time he'd locked it up outside the Dove, Broadway Market in Hackney got nicked. Went in for a pint and bike gone when he came out. The U Lock had been cut clean through. I know it's a long shot but if anyone sees any dodgy bastard on a brand new globe in that area then let me know. He's going down Brick Lane early on Sunday. I'm sure he might see it again there.
This stolen bike thing in London is out of hand. Boris wants people on bikes, Police do fuck all when they're nicked. If they did a sweep of Brick Lane every Sunday it would be a start.
Something needs to be done. You basically can't let you bike out of your site.

Had to ask and pay for it. Cost another 30 notes but as Dan at BETD said they're the only pair in existence at the moment. Thinking black rims and spokes....or chromed rims and spokes, can't decide.
