Register your bike
We strongly recommend registering your bike as a proactive step in safeguarding your investment. Bike registration significantly increases the chances of recovery in case your bicycle is lost or stolen. It's a quick and simple process that provides law enforcement with the essential information they need to identify and return your bike to you. Not only does registration deter theft, but it also gives you peace of mind as you pedal through your cycling journeys."
2 Recommended Options:
1) Project 529 - Free to register, international registry, good mobile interface, ability to transfer registration, ability for others to confirm your bike is registered, can get a sticker for added theft deterrence.
2) City of Winnipeg - $7, city only registry, however if recovered, your bike gets a free ride home.
