Stolen bicycles we helped recover recently:

I got notified via several people on Bikeindex that the bike had just been listed for sale on FB Marketplace. I could immediately confirm it was my bike. Having help baiting the seller, the Marysville PD took over and recovered the bike and arrested the seller. translated from English

The Bike Index community kept me up to date on the bike being posted online. It was remarkable how helpful others were. About 7 months after the theft, it was being sold online and a Bike Index user let me know. With the assistance of the MPDC, I was able to recover it! translated from English
