It was found in a storage unit of the person who stole it, I guess one of his friends found it and actually looked up the serial number, guess there still are honest people in this world! translated from English

Bike recovered 2025.6.30
A bike index user found it near my house and brought it to the police station, where I was able to go pick it up :) I knew where to go pick it up because the person who found it registered the found bike on bike index and it matched to my lost bike. translated from English
