    That might be a good location. You can get adhesive AirTag mounts in black - then you wouldn’t have to get paint anywhere

    Great! Where are you thinking on the bike?

    I found the Galaxy ones, but it says they’re discontinued or something?

    According to this article https://petapixel.com/2021/04/26/apple-airtags-anti-stalker-feature-explained-how-it-can-track-thieves/ an AirTag will only alert a bike thief that they’re being tracked when the thief returns to their home, apparently determined from their address book. This does seem to mean that in the event of a theft you could (in an ideal world) go straight to the police and get them to track the thief down in that initial post-theft window.

    That’s a good example and clearly an AirTag can really help. In day to day life however I guess bikes only go missing if they’re stolen.

    Yes, that’s a good point. Tom on the YouTube channel Shifter discussed AirTags and said if you track your bike to a block of flats, you cannot expect to go knocking on a bunch of doors asking about it.
