Expand Your Reach: A Global Network

This new system goes beyond city limits. 529 Garage boasts a global network, meaning jurisdictions worldwide can access registered bike information. So, whether your bike takes an unexpected journey across town or across the globe, you’ll be alerted if it’s found.

Registering Your Bike with 529 Garage

The registration process is quick and easy! Use the website or download the app. Here’s what you need to do:

Download the App: The free and user-friendly 529 Garage app is available for both iOS and Android devices.
Provide Bike Details: Enter your bike’s unique identifiers like serial number, color, and any distinguishing marks or engravings.
Visual Identification: Upload up to three clear photos of your bike for easy visual verification.
Serial Number Savvy: Finding your bike’s serial number can be tricky. Look for an imprinted code directly on the frame (not a sticker). Note it down precisely as displayed – numbers starting with “TH” are typically stock numbers, not serials.
