So what's the deal with gps on our bikes? Basically I want one, searched the net to little avail so thought I'd ask the experts
Want -
Decent battery life
Compatible with a mac/pc
Small and of decent quality
Any help guys would be much appreciated
so you want it to ring home?
guess that will need some sort of cellular circuitry too
And a mahoosive battery

@£83 big ones but would rather listen to honest feedback from customers than the sales patter of their websites.
These are okay at giving you a rough location of your bike (i.e within one or two streets if youre lucky, much less accurate in very built up areas). They can be very unreliable however. I use similar products in my work on a daily basis and if you want to properly pinpoint their location you're looking at upwards of £1k. Even then we've lost a few 😳
doesn't sound as good as insurance, you don't get a new bike out of it!!
Someone on Stirling Bike Could've website is playing with GPS tracking of their bike...created a thread that I can't link to from my phone...will post a link later.
Heres the link to the thread on Stirling Bike Club. Looks,,, intriguing.

Thanks guys. I have insurance but there's that much love poured into my bike that replacing it with something else isn't something I want to do. Some of the stuff took me some time to source
Yeah ideally I want something giving me a pinpoint gps signal and I'd they cost over a grand then no
I'll check that kinky (I mean linky, love predictive text)
Richard, if you want to email me (in profile) I can fill you in on some more detail
