Last night at the DTLA ride, Syoma parked his rig outside of 7-11?, near Pan-Pacific.
There was this commotion, then suddenly we all find out that his prized rig was taken!!!
I don't got any pictures, but keep a look-out for this particular bike.
Pearl white with a slanted-down, downtube!!
Bump and add pictures, comments, suggestions for thief,.etc

Shit, dude, we going to have to chain you to your bike.
Too bad life isn't like CSI: they would lift some sweet fingerprints off the bike the dude left and then totally catch the guy. The real scenario, I'm afraid, would include less catching the guy and more indifference.

the people that took it knew me, and knew my situation.
they knew this shit happens to me. greatest part is that i was staying sober that night too, and no not like i did on mosey, i actually stayed sober the whole night. i had to do something for school today in the morning. ofcourse that didnt happen.
i'm pretty sure they where at mosey too. i'm not gunna point fingers online, not my thing but... call me or talk to me in private somehow.

seriously though. register your bikes, keep something in the seat tube, register your locks, keys and bikes. and ALWAYS lock up or you may get stuck with a peice of shit. can anyone say basketbike ?

Wait, you know who took it? Fuck, when's the posse forming? I mean, I'm not really the one you want regulating, but we have some serious super hero badasses around here who will certainly help reclaim your ride.

this could be a stretch.... but we could ask all those who took pictures to post them... and see if we can see who was riding that bike. i mean, it could take a while... but i think you might have a chance.

I took a bunch of photos. I'm not going to post them all because most of them are shit. But if you can post a photo of the swapped bike I'll look through and see if I can spot it.

I'm sorry to say that bike does not show up in any of my photos from last night's ride, last week's Taco Tuesday or several Chinatown Moseys. I do have some photos of cats but that seems to have already been covered unnecessarily.

Damn dude.. that is fucking not right. The fact that it was someone on the ride that swapped his/her fixed/ss bike with another and rode off. I'm sooo sorry to hear about this syoma. I haven't been on a ride this whole week but I'll take a look at my pics and see if I find something.

That bike of yours seems to stand out pretty nicely/
Out-of-whack frame, powder-coat paintjob, just all the shit that says some blue-collar, ass trackstander owned this bike.
I'll keep my eyes peeled here on the far-far Eastside, see the lil' punk riding it, and kick 'em in da grill!!!

Does anyone know if there is any kind of small GPS tracker or something that that on the market.something you could put in your seat tube or inside the frame somewhere?I just love the idea of showing up at someones house and being like "you have my bike.I tracked it down here and me my six friends and u locks would like it back please."

@Blacklug

lots of people ride affinity "pursuit" frames on the street. maybe not all white ones, but they are out there.

can someone post that GPS theft tracker info please? that sounds like something I'd be very interested in. Spanx

thanks USER1
but i don't see anything that resembles a small chip i can throw down the stem or the seat tube and be able to track somehow. maybe i should design one. maybe i will.
Jazzy Phat Nastee08.25.08 - 4:58 pm

Hey :D
you can ask me about that.
if your going to get one try to find one thats more of a 'relay' tracker.
as in you 'call it' and it sends u the lat/long.

to all the peeps who live through their bikes and refuse to ride disposable crap. look into an expensive lock, and bicycle insurance.
i learned my lesson hardcore.
SERIOUSLY THOUGH. i'll post the bicycle insurance info in a lil.
Kryptonite also makes great weapons/locks that can be insured up to 3000$ if you're really serious.
and PLEASE go out and register your bike. NOW.

another thing;
never brag or talk about how much your bike is worth, even if it's just emotionally valuable, people like to fuck people.

This is why im proud of my Kuwahara.
the manager to my apt cut all the chains to the derelict bikes in the garage one day, and later that night I was riding home (on my now stolen Cannondale Criterium), and found the red cocksucker up against a tree out front with a nishiki with several other bmx/mtbs.
This was in March and I really love my bike now...
Hell.. Eliot from E.T. rode a Kuwahara bmx, and hes the shit.
Sorry bro im 2 for 2 too!!!
