To the d-bag riding the stolen custom black and gold Hufnagel fixed-gear: Do yourself a favor and turn the bike in at the nearest cop shop. Tell them you found it or something. The person you ran from at the Sunset TC center today got a perfect image of you with her phone and it has been seen by hundreds of people by now. I’m telling you for your own good as the person you stole from has very many unsavory friends and I’m trying to save you what will probably be a considerable beating if you are caught with the bike.

I’m not trying to scare you into doing the right thing, I am honestly trying to help you.

This is not a joke.

  4. Disagree, I want to see the beating and am secretly hoping it involves many crew cut sporting affliction t shirt clothed young men. Also, 4 loco cans

  5. Right, threatening a person who committed a crime with another crime is SO effective.

    (I was laughing about the fixed-gear too.)

  8. Stealing custom fabricated one-off bikes worth half what you make in a year and then riding around on them like it’s no big deal is giving tweakers a bad name.

    I too am hoping this guy gets his ass kicked.

  10. That was a pretty hilarious pic. Huge headphones over the ridiculous oversized baseball cap. Ahhh, I hope the bike makes its way back to its rightful owner without anyone being hurt. OK, maybe hurt just a little.

  11. I see he put tape on the seat and strapped some jackass contraption to the seatpost. TOTALLY doesn’t look at all like the aforementioned stolen bike.

    And that look in his eyes is priceless: It’s either terror or tweaker, perhaps both.

  13. I hate to be the one to bring this up because the vigilante spirit is obviously high, but there’s a chance the kid in the picture bought it or traded for it or was given it by the actual thief. I’m not saying that’s a certainty, but that’s kinda how it works sometimes with criminals and thieving pieces of shit, and I don’t know if it’s necessarily fair to just sentence this (again) kid to a lynching on sight.

  15. Sounds like someone confronted him about the bike on the MAX and the guy bolted. That sounds like the behavior of a thief or someone in knowing possession of stolen property. Guilty regardless.

  16. No one said anything about anyone having been seen stealing the bike, at least not here or on the Craigslist posting.
    I also love all the assumptions that the thief is a meth head who stole a super-expensive bike in order to… put a rack or basket on it and ride it around town? Not really how addiction-related theft works.

  17. @lyle, I was being somewhat facetious, but on the other hand if the bike in question belonged to me or a friend I probably would not be very nice about getting it back. I am not making any assumptions as to who stole it or why, but theft is wrong.
