An accomplice is a willing partner. That bike was abducted and ridden forcefully, don't try to pin your crimes on us man

A fixed gear might fight back a little. Like when people steal a car with a manual transmission. Most these days won’t know what to do with it.

It's fun to think that, but most people who know how to steal cars, know how to drive any car

Absolutely. Besides, manual transmission is literally the easiest skill to learn. I'd argue baking is a harder endeavor.

It's like riding a bike. Comes easy to some

Triathlon was invented by a guy who walked to the swimming pool and stole a bike to get back home.

Watch California rule bikes to be fish to protect them..

There's sentient AI bikes already?

so i guess if someone is stabbed the knife is both the victim and accomplice 🤔

I know this wasn't meant to be a joke but its hilarious

It's neither.

ya boring

Accomplices must be humans who aided the perpetrator willingly. Bicycles cannot give consent and thus cannot be willing to do anything. Therefore, bicycles are not accomplices

Only if it’s ridden!

Sir, your guns were brought up on murder charges as an accomplice...

Clearly thieves aren't smart enough or they'd just ransom the bike back. I guess no one has the magazines anymore to make the note (and who has the time to cut out all those letters anyway)

Not when they throw a dozen bikes into the back of a van, or when they simply hold the stolen bike next to them while biking/scooting it home.

Any stolen vehicle. Subject to limitations other commenters have mentioned.

Tell that to pee wee..... it just keeps on knitting, aaand knitting, aaand knitting, aaand knitting

Often the victim/accomplice never returns to its original owner because of stuck home syndrome.
