No, but why would he be? It makes the most sense to scout for bikes on one bike and when you find a score stash it as soon as possible, not ride around town leisurely on a stolen bike

I seriously doubt their business model is based on fencing stolen goods but I would be interested to hear the customer service directors excuse for why this is not the case.

Someone posted a link in this thread about the Austin pd breaking up a bicycle theft ring. The problem is, as with all theft, unless someone witnesses the crime as it is occurring by the time the cop gets to the scene it is too late to find

Like I posted somewhere else in this thread, people fencing stolen goods usually list a bike that is different from, but similar to the bike (or any other item) they are selling. When contacted, they'll say they already sold that bike,

When I want to ride a century on a nicely paved surface, of course I reach for the Cf frame. If I'm just heading up to the store, my $100 pawn shop bike (which funnily enough was likely stolen since just the frame sells for 100+ on eBa

Obviously it doesn't go for every overweight person, but I would imagine not taking care of yourself enough to sustain a healthy body weight also comes with a slew of other problems such as depression, low self esteem, social anxiety,

you joke, but I have been told by police on two separate occasions (one car break in, one apartment break in) that I should have shot the assailant rather than calling the police first.

What about the fact that so many people are overweight now? I have a lot of friends who are overweight, and have horrible dating lives. Most of the people I know at a healthy weight have plenty of sex.

My friend recently had his bike stolen. It was recovered after it was thrown over a fence of a local business. The thief most likely didnt know how to ride a fixed gear with no brakes, crashed, and ditched the bike.

People selling stolen goods on craigslist almost always use a bait and switch scheme. They will list one item, and when they get a response, they'll say, "oh I sold that bike, but I also have this very similar one for sale..."

I cycle about 40-60 miles around my major metro most days, and I also see a guy pretty often cycling in a big heavy coat, even in 100 degree (f) heat. I wonder if he is a thief.

Maybe its just because I am a cyclist and have an emotional attachment to my bike (a 90s bianchi with campagnolo components that I paid $100 at a pawn shop for... which probably means it was stolen) but I truly despise bicycle thieves.
