## Registration sounds boring, but it can save your bike

Small step now, big difference later

### Greater chance of finding

Registered bicycles are returned to their owners far more often – with a knowledge database it is immediately clear who the owner is.

### Recovering in the event of batch theft

Stolen e-bikes or batteries are sometimes recovered in large batches. Thanks to your registration, authorities or finders can quickly contact you.

### Credible proof of ownership

A registered frame number linked to your name is gold to prove ownership.

### Visible prevention

An eye-catching SafeTag showing the bike is registered deters thieves – without that visibility, your bike stays an anonymous target.
