Hi Schwinn community, I bought back in Sept 2014. I put a lot of miles and care to it. Sadly, two months ago somebody stole it when I moved to a new apartment. First, they stole the front tire because of it's quick release.- I decided to take the bike seat inside my apartment, but they went ahead and stole the whole bike by breaking the lock (not the same lock in the picture).

I was disappointed and, since I did not have the serial number written somewhere I couldn't make a strong police report. Jumping back to last friday. I know it is my bike because it is mine XD Also, as you can see, the front tire (stolen) and the bike seat (in my possession) were different and the paint of the rear rack was chopped off similarly as mine, which was caused by the movement of my basket. So, what I was wondering is if there is a way I can get the serial number from the bike seat. Or if there is any other ideas on how to find it. Thanks for the reading this message and replying back.
