If you’ve included or searched the code EN15194 or AS15194 as a bike’s serial number, you’re not the only one!
A number of bikes have been uploaded onto the system with one or both of these numbers listed as either the ‘frame serial number’ or ‘other serial number’.
However, these numbers are actually standard / quality codes used on electric bikes to indicate they are compliant with either the European or Australian standard. They are not the unique serial number that we need to accurately identify a bike.
We therefore encourage you to look again at your bike and, if possible, locate and note down the legitimate serial number, should it be visible on your bike, and update your details on Bikelinc accordingly.
This will enable the community and police to more quickly and effectively locate a bike’s owner should a lost or stolen bike be recovered.
With thanks from the Bikelinc team.
