    My bad 🤣 calling it a sticker is a bit reductive. It takes time and effort to remove without damaging the bike, and it’s a sign for thieves that this bike is in a prevention database.

      Ehh serial numbers can be filed off I’m sure thieves don’t care about getting $20 for a bike anyways if it’s some paint damage. A cheap can of rustolium might be an investment the thief makes to prevent rusting on the filed off part as well

          Never said we shouldn’t improve. This isn’t an improvement imo…that’s my criticism.
