Distinguishing features
My bike was pretty rusty, but still had a lot of the purple/black cherry color paint shining through. I had new tires, newer brakes put on that I’m pretty sure Alexs bikes would have some record of the work done / what kind of tires. The tire covers have to be bent back in place sometimes from running. However newish brakes had JUST gone out on me. Only the left hand brake (back brakes) worked, but gave me issues last I rode it, needed replaced, so they had a fun surprise learning the brakes weren’t working well. The chain was easily bumped off track. I had put a white front basket on it. One of the screws were missing for it. The back basket had issues with the metal pins that keep it closed, it was rusty. My seat was huge, and had a small chunk of foam out of it. I had put white petals on it. Handlebars were deteriorating, the metal was exposed at the end. I had a basic cup holder. There’s probably still pieces of plastic clear trash bag wrapped under the seat, I used to tie a bag around it because the seat held water. The lights I had on were screw in ones, there’s one on the back of the back basic. Also had a basic purple bell on the left handle bar that was rusted and no longer worked. There’s an older gentleman with the same bike and basket! My petals are white, and my seat is an oversized seat, older had a hole of the foam missing.

Description of incident
I was moving in my new apt and had quickly locked it up expecting to move it inside apt complex courtyard the next morning. Upon returning to bike rack noticed it was gone. The cable lock was cut which was around the frame and back two wheels, I think I possibly used this to wrap around bike rack. (Should have used the chain, not sure which I had around bike rack) I had a large chain going round the front wheel and frame, chain and cable connected in the middle with a u lock.
