WAG: Did she move and, so, did not have to carry the bike to her new place?

********SPOILER********

A month before Becky's international move, her cargo bike was stolen from her apartment complex's underground parking. This worked out in Becky's favour because she didn't have to worry about fitting the rather bulky bike into the moving van or the bike getting damaged during the move. Instead, she used her insurance payout to buy a new identical bike after the move.
