Well, in order to decide whether this is a psychological problem or one where his quest if to make as much money as fast as possible, you'd have to know what sort of bikes were being stolen. If they were simply any bike it could be a compulsion but if they are all high end bikes, the guy is specializing in high end bike theft.

A couple of questions. Based on your knowledge of the bicycle business
and while, of course you, weren't there what kind of money are we
talking about here? Not to justify thieving, I'm just wonder how low
people will go? Can one "make a living" stealing bicycles?

Another thing. The article says that you only have to post 10% of the
bail to get out of jail? Is that true today? I ask as in years past
the entire amount of the bail had to be guaranteed in some manner,
often by a so called bail bond agent who "guaranteed" the bail, or in
other words was required to pay the while amount if you scampered.

Right, bondsmen offer a service, generally at 10% cash.
They'll pay the bond but they want security in real estate,
autos, etc to cover nonappearance:

Every system has its features and foibles. In Mexico for
example you sit in jail until trial.

In San Francisco that SOB Soros funded DA was releasing major felons with NO bail. And he was angry that he was recalled as the worthless POS that her is. Even the New York Times had to call him what he is.

Yes I remember the Kingston Trio and "The Tiajuana Jail" song but that
said "Ain't got no friends to go our bail" (:-)

But in a more sensible vein, I can certainly see a logic in keeping
those that commit severe crimes (for want of a better term) in jail
until tried.

Ah but that is California. Didn't one of your governors close the
insane "asylum"?

Truly "the land of the fruits and the nuts".

That's the theory under Napoleonic Law (such as in Mexico).

We have a Constitutional difference:
https://constitutioncenter.org/interactive-constitution/interpretation/amendment-viii/clauses/103

After 'Our Recent Unpleasantness', the amendments were
incorporated to the States:
https://www.archives.gov/milestone-documents/14th-amendment

The lyricist for the song may have invoked poetic license or
perhaps had no idea that there's no bail in Mexico.

Which is not unusual. If the man singing 'Folsom Prison
Blues' 'shot a man in Reno', why is he doing time in Folsom
California? Other examples abound.

Well (:-) if it is a song the words have to rhyme. "I shot a man in
San Diego" doesn't "fit" (:-)

That Johnny Cash, what a corker. Are any of you guys old enough to remember the first time he ever appeared on network TV, on the Ed Sullivan Show around 1955 or '56, and after Ed had given him a huge buildup while introducing him by saying he was going to be bigger than Elvis, Johnny froze up and couldn't sing? I remember that well.
