Rowl Posted April 3, 2021 Share Sorry for your loss, was the bike stolen at Wolwespruit inside the parking lot? What lock did you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djmehow Posted April 3, 2021 Share Yes, inside the parking lot. The thule bike rack lock, was tight and I locked it but needed the loo. I was ready to leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djmehow Posted April 3, 2021 Share The owners are chasing down footage but yeah someone probably stashed it into a bakkie and drove out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisF Posted April 3, 2021 Share Sorry for your loss. Unfortunately the Thule locks (same with all these racks), are pretty useless. They undo the clips on the tires, and twist the bike frame out of the Thule "claw". Couple of these thefts each month on the Hub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djmehow Posted April 3, 2021 Share Yeah for sure, usually I don't leave the bike unattended, it was a quick gap to the loo so I figured it would be okay. On my next bike won't take that chance.
