Testimonials
"Within 2 days of having my bike stolen, I saw it on an online ad site. Police joined me when I met the seller, and thanks to BikeRegister I was able to prove it was mine." - Greg
"BikeRegister is a fantastic and simple idea, and I would recommend it to any bike owner. Had I not registered mine, it would never have been returned to me." - Kit
"When my bike was stolen I never thought I'd see it again, so I was so happy when I got it back. If it hadn't been registered, the Police would not have been able to return it." - Sarah
"My bike was stolen from my garage. Because my BikeRegister & frame IDs were listed on my online account, I was able to prove it was mine when I saw it on eBay 2 months later." - James
Mark & Protect your bike
Registering on BikeRegister means you could be reunited with your bike in the event of it being stolen, but it does not help make it a hard target to thieves. To reduce the chances of you becoming a victim of cycle theft, you can purchase one of the following Security Kits.
Membership Plus Kit
Identify your bike with a laminated, tamper resistant warning label with unique QR code that can be scanned instantly with a smart phone. Deters would-be thieves.
The BikeRegister Membership Plus kit contains 2 highly durable Tamper Resistant QR barcode labels. These can be scanned with a smart phone to identify your bike on the BikeRegister website, and determine whether it is stolen. Each kit marks one bike.
For every kit sold, we will make a donation to The Brownlee Foundation – the charity set up by triathletes Alistair and Jonny Brownlee to inspire children from all backgrounds to enjoy sport, encourage them to lead active lifestyles and benefit from the opportunities sport provides.
Register & Buy NowPermanent Marking Kit
Protect your bike with a neat visible blue BikeRegister ID etch and warning sticker. Recommended by police and insurers. Over 1,300,000 bikes registered to date. Deters would-be thieves.
The BikeRegister Visible Marking kit permanently marks the frame of your bike with your unique BikeRegister ID. This do-it-yourself kit chemically etches the coating of your bike frame with a visible and permanent blue mark, leaving a neat unique mark which does not affect the frame’s integrity. Included with the kit is a durable, tamper resistant warning label. Each kit marks one bike.
Any bike with a painted or lacquered finish can be marked with the standard plastic marking compound. However, if your bike frame is uncoated carbon fibre, uncoated aluminium or uncoated titanium, then we recommend using our Membership Plus Kit.
The marking compound is dark blue in colour and may be difficult to see on dark coloured frames such as navy or black. However, the compound also contains a UV element so the Police can see the marking under a UV light. The warning label in the kit will provide a visible deterrent even if the mark itself is not visible.
For every kit sold, we will make a donation to The Brownlee Foundation – the charity set up by triathletes Alistair and Jonny Brownlee to inspire children from all backgrounds to enjoy sport, encourage them to lead active lifestyles and benefit from the opportunities sport provides.

The solution is quick and easy to apply, and once dry is virtually invisible. There is enough liquid for around 20 individual marks. Each kit marks one bike
The solution contains a UV tracer, enabling the Police to easily locate the marks, and in turn read one of the microdots to determine the unique ID and ownership.
Included with the kit is a colourless UV marking kit which chemically etches the coating of your bike frame with your Unique BikeRegister ID, the marking is invisible unless seen under UV light. The kit also contains a durable, tamper resistant warning label and a Tesa label with your unique BikeRegister code.
Any bike with a painted or lacquered finish can be marked with the standard plastic marking compound. However, if your bike frame is uncoated carbon fibre, uncoated aluminium or uncoated titanium, then we recommend using our Membership Plus Kit.
Please note that some inexpensive bikes with matt black frames are not suitable to be marked with the permanent marking or covert marking kits, as the paintwork is of a lower quality and can come away from the frame after application, therefore we recommend using our Membership Plus kit for this type of bike.
For every kit sold, we will make a donation to The Brownlee Foundation – the charity set up by triathletes Alistair and Jonny Brownlee to inspire children from all backgrounds to enjoy sport, encourage them to lead active lifestyles and benefit from the opportunities sport provides.
