E-BIKE PROTECTION

An e-bike is a valuable investment and, unfortunately, also a frequent target for thieves. The highest protection is provided by a combination of a mechanical lock and a GPS tracker / Bluetooth chip. A lock delays the thief and the tracker allows you to react in time.
ποΈ Mechanical locks β the basis of protection
A lock is the first line of defense. It is ideal to combine two types:
Types of bike locks
- β Cable locks
lightweight, suitable as an accessory
- β Chain locks
high durability
- β Folding locks
a good compromise between security and compactness
Always lock the bike to a fixed structure and ideally through both the frame and the rear wheel.

π― Smart Bluetooth Chips
Passive Bluetooth devices hidden in the e-bike structure do not transmit location by themselves. Instead, they wait for a nearby phone to pass by, which "helps" them send a signal to the network. In busy streets of Prague city center, this works perfectly β you get the location update within minutes. However, as soon as a thief takes the bike to an industrial zone, a garage, or the outskirts of town, the location update can take hours...

π https://greatebike.eu/chipolo-pop-locator

Installation:
Very discreet placement options. We recommend combining it with a special mount under the bottle cage, where the locator is practically invisible to thieves. It can also be easily hidden under the saddle, in a bag, or on selected models directly under the e-bike covers. At ekolo.cz, we will be happy to advise you on the best placement upon purchase.
Operation:
Completely without monthly or annual fees. The service requires no subscription or SIM card. Power is provided by a single replaceable CR 2032 button cell battery with a lifespan of up to 1 year. Replacing it is a matter of seconds and costs only a few cents.
The highest protection is a combination
