I could use your help.
My family fixed up this boys bicycle to give to a family with 3 small boys.
We replaced the tires (those are Walmart tires with kevlar)
and we did oil the chain...sadly after I took this picture and not before.
We also gave the family a bike lock and chain.
Evidently, the thief smashed the lock and nabbed the bike.
This is the second bike stolen from them in a year.
This bike they only had for 6 weeks or so.
I do have the serial number.
I'm guessing that an adult stole it for instant transport and dumped it when they got to their destination....or not...
Please help me find this stolen boys bicycle.
Thanks!
PS: Do you have a similar sized bicycle for sale?
Feel free to email me with details.
Thanks again!

Update:
Woo hoo! The missing bike has been found.
Helpful hint: When you get a bike, take pics of the bicycle and of the serial number. Email the photos to yourself so you have a time/date stamp.
Then you're easily able to prove ownership of the bike if you don't have a sales receipt.
And yeah, registering the bike with the local police is also a great idea.
