Verhalen over teruggekregen fietsen
My bike was found a few blocks from my home parked on a sidewalk. They took it home, got an alert on the serial number, checked Bike Index and found a match, and located me via our neighborhood blog. It seems the thieves realized that an electric bike without a battery or a key is not very useful. vertaald uit het Engels
