Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

Bike secured in garage, on bike stand

Bike was locked to wooden porch panels in my apartment backyard. Visibility is low into backyard, but we are off an alley entrance. Suspect must have jumped the fence and removed wooden paneling that the bike was locked to and removed the bike from the premises.

Someone broke into my garage and stole multiple bike by cutting the locks

It was stolen outside Ema restaurant on Clark street. There was a white truck nearby the restaurant with two guys standing outside that looked like it could fit a bike. I do not have the license plate number, unfortunately.

Red Trek 5000 OCLV road bike taken from locked garage. The thief came in n from the side garage door and took the bike which was hanging unlocked.

I rode my bike for an appointment at the hospital at 2:10 on Feb 23rd. I locked it (small abus folding lock) up right outside the Chicago Ave entrance. I was in the hospital for about an hour and when I came out my bike was gone (lock and everything). I circled the block several times to make sure that I hadn't missed it, but concluded that it had been stolen while I was in my appointment.

Bike was locked up at 10am, and not discovered to be missing until 7pm.

Locked it up, they cut the street sign and hoisted it over the top. I got home from class and forgot to take it in (I have to take public transit to class, otherwise I would have biked). Went to commute to work the next morning, and it was gone. Photo is from google images, I never took a picture of myself with it unfortunately. If you hear anything, I will be eternally grateful.

A man cased my bike for about 15 minutes outside of Gilt Bar and the Donut Vault in Chicago's River North neighborhood. Using a hand saw he cut the folding abus granite lock that was locked around the bikes frame and front tire. After about a minute the lock failed. He put the broken lock in his bag and rode off with the bike north on Franklin street.

The bike was stolen on Friday, Feb. 3rd between the hours of 8:30pm and 10:00pm on the intersection of Maple St. and Noyes St. in Evanston. One U-lock secured the frame to the bike rack, while the other U-lock secured the front wheel to the bike rack. It was very cold that night, so not many people were walking the streets. The bike and both locks were taken.

Bike has been locked in to a bike rack for 3.5 years in apartment building basement. Noticed bike was gone 2/4/2023. Management company has been threating to remove unregistered bikes. However, bike had current registration with building. Building manager said no bikes had been removed but denied access to camera footage.

Discovered bike missing on Saturday morning (Feb 4). The chain I used to lock it was intact and still locked on the fence with no signs of tampering. Fence appeared intact as well. Multiple other bikes locked along the same fence were still there.

Came out to the garage to go to work this morning and noticed neighbor did not close our shared garage and the my bike and husband's bike was stolen.

Went to go to work this morning and noticed my neighbor left out garage door open and my wife and my bikes were gone.

Bike was stolen from inside locked apartment building. None of the tenants in the building heard or saw anything suspicious. The handyman was also very confused because he said people have kept bikes there for years and none have been stolen.

I was gone from 2:45-5:15 pm today. Bike was stolen sometime in that time, ALONG WITH my roommate's Diamondback Vital 2 women's hybrid (which was in same spot). Another bike there with flat tires was left. I asked the rest of the tenants in the building and none of them heard or saw anything suspicious. The handyman was also very confused because he said people have kept bikes there for years and none have been stolen.

Informed by apartment complex management that CCTV footage showed someone entering the secure bike room and cutting the Kryptonite lock with an angle grinder. Still not sure when the theft actually occurred.

Bike was kept in a shared storage/laundry room for over a year and a half. Some cleaners had temporary access to this building, including the bike room, and the bikes disappeared during that timeframe. Both my bike and my husband's e-bike (black Ride1Up Roadster) were taken out of the building's storage room.
