They were bailed by Bristol Magistrates’ Court with conditions not to associate with each other, not to enter the cycle track and immediate surrounding area, and with curfews between 5pm and 7am.
A third man, 20-year-old Guleed Mahad Ali from Easton, was charged with the same four offences and remanded in custody.
Neighbourhood Inspector Olly Cosgrove said since the arrest they have had no more reports “but we are still urging people to be extra vigilant”.
“We still have additional officers patrolling the area and would urge people using the cycle path, particularly at night, to keep all valuables hidden – especially phones, which are even more obvious when lit up in the dark.
