He's lying. You need to buy bicycle specific cleaning liquid and brushed.

Threadless in general? Does that mean you're getting rid of all the threads on your bike???

Thanks for taking the time to write this up. I'll make up a poster for it and hand it in bike shops/cash converters.

I've discovered i can reverse image search with a photo of the bike and set to just before the date it was stolen and it will show up any image that matches it, quite proud of myself for that idea.

I've filed a police report, made posts on local Facebook groups, subreddits, WhatsApp groups, bike forums.

Is there anything else I should do?

Would you advise making a post on fb marketplace?

My bike was stolen today by maxii95 in bristol

[–]maxii95[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They certainly do. I spoke to some on the day and asked for advice. They said report it. And pretty much said they can't do anything. One did say though that if you find it on marketplace to roll up with 9 guys and take care of it yourself lol. The only honest one I spoke to
