Basic Bike Info

Hybrid Bike

Large
Color:
Black
Condition of Bicycle / Distinguishing Features:
Right edge of the handlebar is a little roughed up and when pressure is put on it it bends down (the handlebar tube is broken at that end). The bike has a "lefty" fork, meaning that the front wheel only has a supporting fork on the left side and nothing on the ride-- it is very distinct and unique looking.

Incident Description:
The bike was locked to a street sign in front of 2030 W Berwyn Ave, Chicago IL. The water department was doing work along the street (evident by the No Parking signs wrapped around the trees on the street stating so-- it said No Parking from 3/23 until 4/13) and I believe they removed the street sign from the ground. My bike was U-locked to one of those street signs. Now the street sign is laying on the ground, however my bike is missing.
The uploaded picture is of the location where my bike was attached to the sign (the sign is now laying on the ground).
