In the Netherlands second hand bicycle stores have to keep records where their bikes come from. A stolen bike shouldn’t end up in a legitimate shop.

- namaria 4y agoSurely we can trust hundreds and hundreds of small business owners to be very strict about law enforcement when it pushes against their financial interests, in a country with more bikes then people. No stolen bikes end up in shops, no siree. Yeah right.
- tinus_hn 4y agoWe’re living in an era where people regularly use tracking devices to retrieve their stolen bicycles. If they turn up in a store the owner should run into trouble even without regular checks. Of course this depends on the police not being lazy which clearly is a big ask but if that is too much any law is pointless.
