Why we ask about the unique features of your bike when you register!

When you register your bike with BIKEBAZE, we not only ask for the frame number, but also for special features of your bike. Think minor scratches, a curved brake, a sticker on the frame tube, or a unique color finish. These details may seem unimportant, but they make a world of difference if your bike is ever reported stolen or found.

The Power of Details

Many bikes have the same brand, model, and color. Without specific features, it is difficult to distinguish a bike from dozens of similar ones. However, if you can prove that your bike has, for example, a bent left brake or a scratch in a certain spot, it will be a lot more credible that it's about your property.

Why this matters

• Reinforce proof of ownership: For parties such as the police, a detailed description weighs heavily as evidence.
• More chance of finding: The more unique features that are known, the greater the chance that your bike will be recognized.
• Preventive effect: A well-documented bike is less attractive to thieves because it's harder to sell.

Note down as much as possible

Our advice: describe your bike as completely as possible upon registration. Where possible, include photos and note any minor discrepancies. It's just the details that are the deciding factor when you have to claim your bike back.

Conclusion‍

A well-registered bike is not only linked to a frame number, but also to a unique profile with features that make it recognisable. Those details only take you a few minutes to fill in, but can make the difference in case of theft.
