the TLDR:

How Cyclists and Bike Shops Can Get Involved

 Cyclists can join the fight against bike theft by registering their bikes with 529 Garage. The process is quick, free, and simple. All you need is your bike’s serial number, usually located on the underside of the frame. By registering, you are not only protecting your own bike but also contributing to a global network working to deter theft and recover stolen bikes.

Bike shops play a crucial role in this mission by enabling the 529 Garage feature in Hubtiger’s software. When activated, bike serial numbers entered during servicing are automatically checked against Project 529’s database, making it easier to reunite stolen bikes with their rightful owners.

Through the combined efforts of cyclists, bike shops, and the partnership between 529 Garage and Hubtiger, the fight against bike theft is gaining momentum, helping to recover stolen bikes and build safer, stronger communities one registration at a time.
