That's amazing! Amazing bad, of course, not amazing good. I have a Kona Cinder Cone myself and I feel for the poor bike

I sometimes wonder about bike thieves and how they operate, though. I can imagine someone doing all sorts of mechanical type things to a bike, and passersby not reacting because person is not obviously stealing the bike and most people don't know diddlysquat about how to repair bikes anyway. While a person cutting or breaking open a lock is much more obviously a thief. I can't imagine the guts you'd have to have to try something like this though. It takes a lot of time after all!
