This is exactly the BEST way to put out an APB for a criminal. Give me all the details of his bike. As I am sizing up every bike I see (can't help it), this is the fastest way to get me to find the criminal.

When I was in high school beautiful young women would drive by and I could tell you everything about the bike and nothing about the woman. That is probably why some of them were so annoyed with me!

Bikes are immediately stripped and the most important part - the frame and fork - are often simply thrown away.
