• GPS Tracking for Stolen Bikes

  in Bikes & Bits • 15 years, 7 months

  

  si0161, is a good product but not really a tracker will only work if someone with a scanner is lucky enough to find the stolen item.

  To everyone that has put BB in there message can I please confirm what that means, is it Ball Bearing?

  Another way to sort the power problem could be to use the thing that goes on the wheel to power lights etc, cant think what it is called, dyno possible. I know obviously that can be removed, but my thought would be that if you have the light set up to and maybe a rechargeable battery system in the tube also even if it does get removed you should still have a few days/ weeks to power the gps tracker depending on batteries. Also if you have the light set up would not seam so obvious and also would the dyno be removed? My theory would be if the bike is stolen all someone would want to do is ride around on it themselves or sell it so are they really going to bother removing lights? I know you people out there with your ultra fast road bikes may worry about the resistance coursed but like I say if there are rechargeable batteries in there may only need to use it for a couple of hours or so.

  Would be happy to hear what you think!

  Cheers all.
