Raleigh Frame Custom SS (parts theft: fork, brake levers & handlebars)
What happened
On the night of 6/9, I had my custom built single speed bike locked up in the outside parking lot of a condo building in Lakeview, near Diversey and Sheridan. Some piece of s*** stole the fork, handlebars, and brake levers off the bike. It was FSA Compact Omega handlebars, Forte stem, Tektro crosstop handlebars and regular Tektro road-type levers. The bike was locked w/ a U-lock and cables around the tires. They didn't mess w/ the lock, they didn't take the wheels, just the fork and the handlebars.
