How to secure an e-bike?


🔒 1. High-quality lock

The quality of your e-bike lock can greatly influence whether someone will attempt to steal your e-bike or not. Our range of locks for e-bikes includes cable locks, chain locks, and folding locks. Basically, the heavier and more robust the lock you buy, the harder it will be for thieves to break it. However, you don't have to worry about the weight, because your e-bike will carry it reliably and you won't notice any difference when riding. 

 

🛰️ 2. GPS locators

A new and very popular security option is a GPS locator, which can accurately determine the exact location of your e-bike. At greatebike.eu, we offer three different GPS solutions from leading manufacturers with 100% functionality. They are installed directly inside your e-bike and are invisible and undetectable to potential thieves. In the event of theft or unauthorized use, the GPS system is activated and immediately sends an alarm to your smartphone and tracks the bike's route online!

 

📍 3. Smart chips

Passive Bluetooth devices hidden in the construction of the electric bike do not transmit their location themselves. Instead, they wait for a foreign phone to pass by, which "helps" them send a signal to the network. This works perfectly on the busy streets of central Prague—you can get the location within minutes. However, once the thief takes the bike to an industrial zone, garage, or the outskirts of the city, it can take hours for the location to be updated... 

 

📝 4. E-bike insurance

Great deals on e-bike theft insurance. If your e-bike is stolen, you can be sure that your investment will be largely reimbursed and you can buy a new e-bike. The insurance covers theft from a building or open space, theft from a car or bike rack, robbery and vandalism, damage or destruction by accident (including those caused by you), and damage or destruction during transport (including those caused by you).
