Raffle: High-quality e-bikes need appropriate protection against theft. But what to do if the thieves successfully strike despite a high-quality lock? Then a system like the PowUnity BikeTrax can help. The GPS tracker can be hidden in the e-bike, reports unwanted movements directly to the owner's smartphone and allows the bike to be located via GPS. We are giving away five PowUnity BikeTrax Trackers worth 199 euros each.
Unfortunately, bicycle theft will still be part of the daily routine in Germany in 2022. Anti-theft protection that matches the value of the bike is therefore part of the absolute standard equipment, especially for high-quality e-bikes. But as countless tests on locks show again and again: They can all be opened, provided you have the right patience, skills and tools. So what to do? GPS trackers such as those from PowUnity offer additional security for e-bikes.
These trackers, called BikeTrax, can usually be easily retrofitted even after the bike has been purchased and can be easily hidden on or inside the bike. Then simply install the PowUnity app on your smartphone and you have a constant GPS connection to your darling on two wheels. Sensors built into the tracker register vibrations and movement, notify the owner via the app and start tracking. The bike can be tracked via GPS, and the relevant information can be passed on directly to the police. There is a constant connection to the mobile network for this purpose.
We recently tested the PowUnity Biketrax and were able to convince ourselves of its functionality. The connection was stable at all times, movements were immediately reported via the app. The system has its own buffer battery that supplies energy for a few weeks so that the tracker can also do its job when the battery is removed or empty. The PowUnity Biketrax is available for many common e-bike drives: Bosch (incl. Smart System), Shimano, Yamaha or Brose. Suitable installation instructions including an adapter cable are included.
