VERIFY FRAMES AGAINST THEFT 
• Our market helps buyers make smarter decisions by checking serial number status against BikeIndex and 529garage 
• If a # is not in one of those two we will still show a "provided" mark to highlight entrees that can be checked against other databases on your own 
• In addition we now allow for showing proof of ride history, just like CarFax, through Strava. This helps shoppers understand if the item has been owned and ridden for a substantial time prior to being sold. 
• Note: We also take active measures against thieves by showing a stolen news bulletin from BikeIndex in some countries. Keep an eye out for those velocipedes!

CREATE WANTED BOUNTIES
• Looking for something specific or generic you cant locate then post an ad about it in our classifieds section 
• Create bounties for unique parts you cant unearth anywhere else or general criteria for a ride and price range you cant turn up in your area 
• Mechanics, hobbyists and avid builders will love this indispensable feature for finding rare things not available online or from retail locations in particular

LIST COMPONENTS 
• Our app is a great way to dispose of parts you don't need or which aren't compatible with your stuff
• Its also a great way to transfer working components to new pedal-pushers who need them to get rolling
• Really clean UI that makes it fast and easy to post a lot of goods at once

SECURE & PRIVATE 
• Because we are not a "payment processor" our software does not currently have to collect your personal id, tax, contact and address info as of new laws passed in 2023 which effectively protects said data from hackers
• We do not store your passwords, payment details or monitor your messages internally by allowing you to set up contact methods such as: Signal, Telegram, WhatsApp, Viber, SMS, MMS, RCS, TXTing, Calling and Email
• By charging upfront we allow you to display and link out to your favorite ways to get paid off-platform: Venmo, CashApp, PayPal, ApplePay, G-Pay, Zelle, Ethereum, Bitcoin and paper cash
