Built by riders,
for riders.
The Bike Register is the UK's free bike registry. We believe every bike deserves a single, reliable record that its owner can manage, update, and protect.
Your bike's stolen.
Nobody can identify it.
We've all seen the posts: "Bike found abandoned in a hedge — anyone know the owner?" Without any ID on the bike, there's no way to reunite it with its owner.
Remember when the local police officer used to stamp your postcode on your bike frame? Same idea — but without damaging your pride and joy.
One scan.
Owner contacted.
The Bike Register gives your bike an invisible ID. Stick a QR code on it or hide an NFC tag inside the seatpost. If anyone finds it, one scan contacts you — securely, with no names or numbers shared.
Think of it like a pet tag for your bike. No app needed. No sign-up required to report a find.

Built by riders, for riders
The Bike Register was built by someone who understands the pain of bike theft first-hand: the helplessness, the lack of any way to prove a bike is yours, and the frustration of seeing "anyone know the owner?" posts with no way to respond.
I built this because every bike deserves an invisible ID. Not to stop theft — but to make it easier to get your bike back when someone finds it dumped in a hedge.

How it works
Three steps to protect your bike and build its digital logbook.
Register Your Bike
Create a free account and register your bike in under a minute. Add make, model, frame number, and a contact email.
Tag It
Stick a QR code on the frame or hide an NFC tag inside the seatpost or handlebars. If someone finds your bike, one scan contacts you.
Build Your Logbook
Track expenses, log servicing, schedule maintenance, store documents, and manage equipment in one place.
How we protect your data
Privacy isn't an afterthought — it's built into every layer of the platform.
Your email stays private
Reports are routed through our system. Your contact email is never shown publicly — finders never see your address.
Row-level security
Your expenses, documents, maintenance records, and equipment data are only visible to you and people you explicitly invite.
No tracking
No analytics cookies, no ad networks, no data sales. We don't monetise your information — ever.
Read our full Privacy Policy for more details.
Not a replacement — a complement
DVLA registration and V5C documents are official records. The Bike Register doesn't replace them — it sits alongside them as a digital logbook, a way to tag your bike, and a secure contact link if it's ever found.
Think of it like a pet tag for your bike. Your V5C proves you own it. The Bike Register gives your bike a discreet, scannable ID — so if it's ever found abandoned, stolen, or left outside school, one scan gets it back to you.
Works for motorcycles, mopeds, e-bikes, pushbikes, and scooters. QR codes can be visible; NFC tags can be hidden. Your choice.
