Man Finds Stolen Bike

[ValeYellow]

Stumbled across this on twitter today. Wonder if it is available in SA and if not perhaps we should look into it?

Would be great, I like the part at the end,,,,NO NEED TO CALL THE COPS

But ja in theory great idea

What the hell?!

 

Where do these people live? Canada? Definitely not in sunny Southern Africa!

That lame ass "bike thief" did not even have no knife . . .! Shameful!

 

When I read "bike spike" I at least hoped the seat will remotely click lose, fall off, and they get a seat post in the bunghole . . .

This is useless .

I also saw this on twitter. Visited the website. I think this is a very good idea to bring to SA. Does not look to be too expensive either.

Anyone have a price?

I have emailed the guys at TrackR to see if and when it will be available in SA, I see a problem with it though in that it uses crowd GPS, which means it will only give a position on the stolen bike when it passes near bye someone else using TrackR.... I doubt there will be many people using the TrackR app down in the ghettos

I would tend to disagree with you there. I think there would be PLENTY of "used to be owned by me" bikes in tha ghetto maan. However you would need to have a lot of stolen bikes and ex owners with that trakr, all clustering together to be useful ...... i guess.

 

Sorta like Dips said.
