Stolen bicycles we helped recover recently:
I went to Reddit and posted to several communities that my bike had been stolen. After a few hours someone messaged me that they had seen the bike stashed/abandoned in an alleyway a couple blocks from where it had been taken. I went over there, scooped it up and rode off with it. translated from English

Tracy at Bike Index helped me track down the guy that stole my bike. He registered my bikes serial number here Bike Index trying to make it look like it was his. Tracy called within 5min of me completing my Stolen bike notice and gave me all the info on the suspected thief. translated from English
