Cycling

More than 48% of stolen bicycles are recovered every year by law enforcement, but only 5% are returned since they have no way to determine ownership. When a bicycle is labeled and registered in the NBR database, it can be easily identified by police and returned to its rightful owner. The NBR computer database is dedicated exclusively to bicycle registrations and is available FREE to law enforcement nationwide.

The National Bike Registry works! Every time a police officer has recovered a bike that was in our database, we have been able to quickly identify the owner so that the bike could be returned.

NBR has established a network of police departments coast-to-coast who look for the NBR label and can easily report recovered bicycles.

We provide an effective and easy-to-use system that allows people to register their bikes so that they can protect their investment and reduce the loss from bicycle theft. With NBR, bicycle owners everywhere can increase security, discourage theft and enjoy their bikes for years to come!

Don’t let it end up at a police auction!

Since 1984, the National Bike Registry (NBR®) has been working with law enforcement to return stolen bikes to their rightful owners. A bike registered with NBR, the only true national database, can be identified by police and returned to you instead of being sold at an auction.
