Calgary Bike Thefts on the Rise | Calgary News

Calgary’s bike theft epidemic is spiraling—with over 100 reported cases since June, likely far higher due to unreported thefts. Riders are losing bikes right from their yards, turning summer fun into a nightmare. Police are rallying communities through Bike Index, a digital registry that helps track stolen bikes via public tips. Thieves appear increasingly organized, even casing homes before striking—like the recent raid on a garage that nabbed three e-bikes and a dog trailer. Authorities urge everyone to lock up with heavy-duty U-locks, record serial numbers, and snap clear photos. Without these steps, stolen bikes often vanish into chop shops—or worse, become untraceable parts. But with proper precautions, you’ve got a fighting chance to get your ride back.
