How 529 helps protect your ride:

Protect your bike with 529 through a few simple steps that help prevent theft, support recovery, and offer peace of mind. Swipe to see how ...

Start by registering your bike, it's quick, free, and helps deter theft while giving you the best chance of recovery.

Add photos to make your bike easy to identify if it's stolen. Add shots of the full bike, unique features, and the serial number for maximum impact.

Upload receipts to provide proof of ownership, which is key for recovery or insurance claims. We'll store them safely in your 529 Garage profile.

Add a 529 Shield to visibly mark your bike with a tamper-resistant, uniquely coded identifier that links it to your registration and helps deter theft.

Fully protect your bike with insurance that covers more than just theft—so if your bike is lost, damaged, or beyond recovery, you're still riding.
