SURLY/SELF BUILT BIKE
What happened
Bike was stolen INSIDE of the Kedzie Orange line train station. It was locked to itself (the wheel to the frame) with an old ULock, but a flat key. The non "U" part of the Ulock is silver (just the metal), while the "U" part is black. It was between 8AM-12:30PM on August 26th, 2015.

- Condition
- The bike was black, yet had many patches of silver underneath from scratched off paint. It has a flat bottom bar. I had a Chicago flag sticker on one side, and a gay rights (the blue/yellow equal sign), gender equality (from the underwear critical mass in july), and two "so tasty" (jimmy johns) stickers on the other side. The top bar has a little residue in the middle from duct tape that I previously peeled off (you would probably only notice this if you touched it). Then, since the bike was self made, I put the break cables as different colors: green and purple. The shifting cable was very short and a teal color. The grips have a trim of red at the end, and the fork says "SLURY" vertically.
