The raid was launched in relation to a burglary at Royal Bikes on June 10 when an offender forced entry through the front glass doors of the shop.
A man was arrested at the address, taken into custody and questioned.
He was later released pending further investigation by detectives.
A $7000 mountain bike was stolen during the burglary, which lasted about two minutes and the bike was located by a security guard in Hoddle Street later that night.
Anyone with information about the burglary is requested to contact Warrnambool police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
