Report a stolen bike
File the frame number with Cyclesite and we'll block any attempt to relist it on the marketplace. The faster it's on the register, the better the odds of recovery.
Theft in progress or you're in danger? Call 999. Otherwise 101 or use your local force's online form.
Sign in to file the report
Each report is tied to your account so we can email you if the bike resurfaces and a moderator can verify it. Takes under a minute, and anything you've typed is saved on this device.
What you'll need: the frame number (usually stamped under the bottom bracket, 7-14 alphanumeric characters), brand, model, year and colour, 1-4 photos of the bike, the date and location of the theft, and a crime reference number if you've already filed with the police. Once submitted, the frame number is added to the Cyclesite register, cross-checked against every new listing, and (with your consent) forwarded to UK stolen-bike databases for police visibility. Buyers can also run a free frame-number check before handing over money.
