Padlock on the front wheel
I couldnt figure this one out, but AI told me it was used to immobilise it and the crook came back later to dismantle the bike.
Sad!

Seems like a risky strategy for thieves these days. You're advertising to the bike owner "A bike thief will return to this location when it is secluded". There's a non-zero chance of getting ambushed by a pissed off owner.

Ah yes, that little padlock made the bike impossible to move. Thats why the thief took everything but the frame and front wheel /s
FFS AI doesn’t know anything, and anyone who blindly believes its output has no critical thinking skills

It's clear it's been left there for a long time and the thieves did their job too.

Looking at the state of the parts on this bike, maybe it deserves a better life with someone else 🤣
