It looks as though, according to Citi's website, that most purchases made with a Citi Mastercards are protected against fire, accidental damage & theft within 90 days of purchase. Unfortunately, it doesn't say if that extends to the co-branded cards. Mastercard offers complimentary purchase protection (theft & accidental damage) for 30 days as well.
Of course... all of this is irrelevant if you've got the store card, or if your purchase was greater than 30 or 90 days. 
You might consider claiming it on your homeowners or renter's insurance, if appropriate. Sometimes it's hard to think in these situations, of the options.
I had my bicycle stolen this year, too. And later I saw a guy riding it down my street as I stood there talking to a patrol officer who was in the area because of some recent violence. The officer did nothing, but ask me to check and make sure it was stolen (of course it was, it had been stolen months before), as the guy was riding away, and I'm shouting at him, "hey, that's my bike, that's my bike." 
Sucks.

DI, have you call them and ask? That might be the best way to get an answer ... IMO
Yes, I called. The rep said they don't offer that type of protection.
Oh ... sorry DI ....
