Trackr device tags

A non bike fitting post for once! It's not something I've done before and it is loosely cycling related so please forgive me...

I recently purchased a few Trackr Bravo tracking devices, they use a crowd network of users to determine the location of an item every time a user passes it, so it's not quite GPS real time tracking but neat nonetheless.

I'm a sucker for losing things so actually bought them to go on various keys so I know where I last had them! But it got me thinking that these would be great on bikes, you're able to hide them as they are really quite small, around the size of a pound coin.


This would give you more chance of recovering a stolen bike (providing of course that one of the app users gets near it when it's been nicked) and whilst it has it's flaws in that sense, I like the added security for a very small cost.

You can also set the app to ring when the Trackr tag leaves it's connective range, so that's quite neat I would guess for when a burglar disappears up your driveway with your bike!

You can use this link to purchase and we both get one free if you do, so it's definitely worth considering!


Happy Riding,

Stephen
