And let's put it this way, does a person steal a beater bike or something in reasonable condition? My experience tells me, beater bikes get left and good conditioned bikes are taken.
Well neither would I, but unless I missed something neither of us are a dumb impulsive teenage boy.

Since he was using it for parts to fix his own bike I doubt he was terribly concerned with what kind of condition the bike was in, and the fact remains that you simply DON'T KNOW whether or not the kid is really a thief, or just an idiot.
