Elby Urban Cruiser Electric Bike
What happened
On August 25, 2026, at approximately 7:00 AM, I secured my gray Elby Urban Cruiser electric bicycle at the bicycle racks underneath the Ravenswood Metra station/bridge. I locked the bicycle to the bike rack and left the area to board the Metra train. I returned at approximately 5:50 PM and discovered that the bicycle was missing. The bicycle's rear wheel was also secured with a built-in wheel lock, which requires a key to unlock, so the bicycle could not have been ridden away without unlocking the rear wheel. There appear to be surveillance cameras in the immediate area that may have captured the theft. The bicycle is a gray, full-size adult electric bicycle with 27.5-inch wheels and is approximately 45 lbs. I did not give anyone permission to take or remove the bicycle. I can provide photographs and other identifying info.
