Bike Information

Don't let this happen again — register your next bike with BikeTagz for cryptographic proof of ownership.

What to do if your e-bike is stolen

  1. 1.File a police report immediately. You'll need this for insurance claims. Include the serial number if you have it.
  2. 2.Report on BikeIndex.org. The national stolen bike registry that police departments across the US reference when they recover bikes.
  3. 3.Post on local social media using the generator above. Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, and OfferUp are where thieves resell quickly — check those too.
  4. 4.Check local pawn shops within 48 hours. Many states require pawn shops to hold items for 24–72 hours before resale.
  5. 5.Alert local bike shops. If a thief tries to sell a stolen e-bike for parts, it often ends up at a bike shop.

Having the serial number dramatically increases the chance of recovery. If you don't have yours recorded, find it now — it's usually stamped on the bottom bracket or frame.
