Waymark / Routes / bikeindex.org Check whether a bike is reported stolen using the Bike Index search API

Sampled — shipped under file-level sampling, not individually fact-checked community attestations: 0✓ / 0✗
Steps Authenticate with an access token, which is recommended even where not strictly required, for better rate limits Call the search endpoint with the stolenness parameter set to stolen to check reported-stolen bikes, or all for a broader match Pass identifying details such as serial number and/or make and model as search parameters to narrow results For a location-based sweep, use the proximity stolenness option with a location value and a distance radius Parse timestamps in the response as UTC unix timestamps, consistent with how time-based parameters are sent Manually cross-check ambiguous serial matches before treating a hit as confirmed, since serials aren't guaranteed unique Known gotchas Time values throughout the API are UTC unix timestamps (integers), not ISO date strings — mis-formatted timestamps will fail or misfilter Serial number searches can return multiple candidate matches; a match isn't proof of theft without manual review The proximity search requires a location value and only returns stolen bikes — it won't surface non-stolen bikes within range
