Thieves struck in a quiet residential area in central Rheine at around half past two on the night between 3 and 4 January. The owner didn\u2019t notice that his e-bike worth some 5,000 euros had disappeared until the next day. The bike would probably have never been found again if it weren\u2019t for the concealed built-in tracker. [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]When Niko L. discovered that his e-bike had gone around midday, he was pleased that he had opted to fit a GPS tracker when purchasing the bike. After locating his cargo bike in Essen using the associated app, he called in the IT\u2019S MY BIKE team.<\/p>\n<p>Sebastian Stoll, Customer Relationship Manager, wasn\u2019t able to pinpoint the GPS signals at a precise location in the Ruhr region city until the following day. \u201cIn such cases, you need to act quickly and call in the local police,\u201d affirms the expert in bicycle theft protection. Not far from the stadium, the officers finally discovered a warehouse containing some 40 bikes and other stolen property, mostly hidden away in a caravan. Niko L.\u2019s cargo bike was also found there. The thieves has already removed some parts, including the pedals. \u201cI\u2019m happy to get my e-bike back again so quickly \u2013 the minor repairs are not a problem for me,\u201d says the pleased owner.<\/p>\n<p>*Name has been changed<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Image: Symbolbild \/ Adobe Stock[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1607352699415{padding-top: 50px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_separator css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1607352739072{padding-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;media-kontakt&#8221;]<a href=\"https:\/\/imb-staging.jweiland-hosting.de\/en\/team\/\">To the IT&#8217;S MY BIKE company profile<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IT\u2019S MY BIKE GPS tracker leads officers to carefully camouflaged hiding place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":4545,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[33,38],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4634","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-success-stories","category-33","category-38","description-off"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Essen: police seize some 40 stolen bicycles &#8211;
