Please be vigilant when leaving your bike in a public place and take care to keep them in a secure place at home. Ensure you have adequate security in the form of locks or home CCTV.
These thieves are known to respond to sellers’ adverts on Gumtree and Facebook and similar selling sites so never disclose the location of where you keep your bike and meet buyers in a public place instead.
If you see anything suspicious please always report this online or by phone on 101.
You can also register your bike on the national register in order to make it easier for Police to trace the owner.
