I have always suspected that a lot of stolen Finnish bikes (the high-end stuff) ended up in Russia, but AFAIK Customs didn't check outgoing, so who the heck knows. But maybe bike theft trends have changed now that the border is mostly closed. (Dual citizens can still shuttle back & forth, but now they need EU license plates not Russian.)
