2008 Schwinn Madison

What happened

I locked up the bike at 8:15AM, came back out for lunch at 1PM to find it gone. The security guard for the building knew and saw nothing. The lock was gone as well. This is my daily commuter, I've locked up to this location every day for 15 months. I always lock the rear wheel/frame to the rack, and use a cable for the front wheel. The picture is outdated, see insert for new handlebars. -The rear brake was removed -Stock handle bars replaced with Profile Design Airwing OS + Cane Creek brake lever +-Blue Oury grips -Stock saddle replaced with WTB Rocket V saddle -Black Crank Brothers Mallet pedals It still had the SKS fenders and blue Verdestein tires.
