Unlikely it will ever be recovered, Its probably on its way to Eastern Europe to be re-registered. This is why its hard to have a nice bike in London


Was it insured?

Sorry to hear this, will keep an eye out

As a long standing member of this forum I thought you'd have read, as much as me in my short time, that anything made by oxford should be avoided.

By all reports, I could probably chew through an oxford chain.

Yet, I have sympathy for you. It looks a nice bike and I hope you find it. Though if you do find it, you probably won't want it back.

It's either joyriders (less likely) to crash it around the estates or blokes in vans who are already in the chunnel never to return.

that's shit mate. Hope it gets found however, it's most likely in the back of a van on the way to a port now.

London, innit. Wretched hive. Probably chewed through that chain with their rat teeth.

Shit news but 999?

Where exactly in London was it nicked?

Very distinctive but that won't matter when it turns up in Eastern Europe.

Commisserations, you learned the hard way that Oxford are wank.
I thankfully learned this from BCF before some dipshits tried to cut my chain.

Buy your next chain and lock from 1 of these 2 companies and you're about as secure as you will feasibly get...

https://securityforbikes.com/

or

https://www.almax-security-chains.co.uk/

I can vouch for Customer Service and quality of both companies and their products (in general, not tried every chain and lock they have)

Where in south London? If its near me I'll have a look around the local hiding places.

Also have a good look around your way. Standard practice is to nick the bike, leave it somewhere secluded but nearby for a couple of days in case it has a tracker, then pick it up and get it to a lockup or overseas.

Sold Secure Motorcycle Gold, Thatcham Approved and uh... "Oxford Attack Tested".

probably self certifying, start cutting, go for fag and cup of tea, come back 5 minutes later, hey presto "thatcham gold"

Bad times.

Oxford seem to be known for their shite, has always looked like cheap tat whenever I've seen their products.

Almax up lads!
