Don’t tell me what I’ll regret.

The story about mountain lion in selfie in Canyon was my wife. And interestingly, my wife and I passed the Rothwells while they were hiking up the North Rim with bikes on their bikes.

When I got my bike 2nd hand I notice that even tho it had a heavy duty U-Lock there could be another deterrent for opportunist thieves on foot, the seat was easily removed and it not easy to ride a bike without a seat. 😂 Although, it is possible. Just a possibility for a certain situation I could be in.

I put an AirTag on my bike so that when I fly with it I have peace of mind that the airline hasn’t lost it.

That canyon grizl looks aggressive to be a bikepacking rig or is it just me?

Thanks! Excellent interview.

Talked with them at kentucky camp. So glad they made it.

Amazing. That's all I can say.

Thanks!

Just buy the knog bike alarm with 85db alarm and apple find my support, price around 50,- can ve mounted underneath your bidon.

For problem 1: Cut the speaker wire For problem 2: get some muscular friends for some "search and seizure"

I’m not aware of the same stalker laws here in Norway. Afaik we’re totally allowed to track our property and retrieve it. But it’s best left to law enforcement to take care of that, for safety

if you're doing a quicky grocery stop... just get a super lightweight zip lock/combo. works great for grab and go.

Another interesting great podcast

Yeah UK has no amendments cops can search your house if they find weed during a traffic stop! Be interesting what they would do with bike theft and an airtag. Gotta hope they have android i guess?!

Why Airtags don't work as anti-theft device? Because mmurica. All the thief needs to do is to have an iPhone with them. It will alert them about an unknown airtag following them, so they will simply spend a few minutes looking for it, throw it away and. leave with your bike. As simple as that.

I beat the shit out of a Merlin XLM in the 90’s and never had any frame failures. A friend had a Lightspeed and no failures either. Both our bikes were American made. Guess ti quality has gone down.😢

Last year I noticed a couple of guys hanging around outside the front of our house looking at their iPhones. They were clearly looking for something and I asked them what they were up to. They said that they’d had some bikes stolen from their business and an AirTag was saying they were within 20 metres of the AirTag. The police turned up about two minutes later and they narrowed it down to my neighbour’s shed. Turned out he had five stolen bikes in there. I don’t know what they did differently to you, but it definitely worked, at least on this occasion in the UK.

thanks god we don‘t have the 4th amendment here. The same amendment that does not protect LEGAL immigrant for being searched by the ICE police even though they should be entitled to that very same protection. But the bottom line here is simple: ad against apple and pro tiles.

its easy to ask coders online to figure out how to put an airtag into antitheft mode like with these tiles. Tiles don't wok well, for there are 1 in am entire 1 million apple airtag and iphone users who would have the tiles app downloaded on their iphones or androids, and only that TILES app would connect to tiles-tags ones. so tiles is out of the game right from the bat. but apple airtags will connect to all and any iphone existing on the planet. again asking coders to overwrite the apple air-tag firmware with a little fix in it, is 100% legal. this way a thief would not make the tag beep, nor the apple air tag would show up as an "unknown tag nearby". another option is to check out air-tags sold in other countries where the laws might be the opposite.... the EU often has different laws than the USA, and APPLE has to follow them to be allowed to sell them in the EU...and so on with other countries. it will take some research...but i bet you anything there are countries that fit such criterias you wish for.... then just buy these apple airtags in that foreign country via amazon of that country, and have it shipped to your USA location...and if needed via Drop-shipping companies, if amazon spain, just as an example, will not ship to the USA.... use drop shipping companies

Real starte right at 3:51 , before that empty content talk to stretch the video ....

I get the point of stalker mode….but what if you are tracking a child that has been kidnapped? Dumb idea Apple!!!!

apple is stupid to let people know that i have an airtag on my bike. screw apple. I am not worried about a stalker. A stalker will just use another brand. Stupid to make everyone that wants to use a tracker suffer for a minority

Jeez get to the point

What about samsung's trackers?

Use a decent lock, the lockpicking lawyer has some good recommendations.

I also have a 2023 Epic Evo and been debating whether to get a new epic 8 or epic 8 evo, there pros and cons to that. However, because I love my bike I decided to start purchasing pretty much same stuff you have. Have you thought about the new epic 8 or epic 8 evo?

Another option, if you’re alone: ask someone to watch your bike for 5 minutes. Chances are ultra low that they’ll run off with your bike.

Just get a D lock holster

By far the simplest anti-theft strategy is to simply bring your bike into the store with you. I do it all the time, and it's never a problem.

extra tip 3:30 - use duck (or gorilla) tape to protect some areas of bags.

How much is marketing in the comments or how much is IRL. Sure everyone is getting back their stuff .

My e-bike was stolen from a bus stop where I had locked it using a cable lock as the primary security. I had removed the battery and seat and kept them in my bag. I reported the theft to Peel Police. A few days later, I saw an advertisement on Marketplace for bikes and contacted the seller. I showed him pictures of my bike, and he confirmed that someone had come to sell it, but he didn’t make the purchase. I offered him $100 as a reward to recover my bike, but it was returned without the horn and front light, which were broken. When I informed Peel Police of the situation, instead of investigating further or tracking the people frequently selling stolen bikes, they simply closed my case. Now, I lock my bike at the same location for more than 15 hours during the day and night. For security, I use a heavy-duty chain from Canadian Tire with a lock from Public Storage, along with a lighter chain lock from Temu and a cable lock securing the battery and seat.

Great quality of the video! Should have way more views!

Dylan, Tim McCabe here I sent you a friend request on the FB. Having been involved with the AZTR since the beginning, I do continue to follow the race. My first thought was well this is up to the other Pink dot racers not the Blue dot racers, so I really think we need to trust the women on this, well and on everything that really only affects women.

Criminals are the reason for the stalker mode. Why are criminals protected by the laws they break. Don’t call the cops, street justice has its benefits.

She got the overall fkt for Arizona trail so isn’t her biological gender a moot point? At least for the AZT I don’t see why there would be controversy.

Keep an eye bike and stay strapped & Frosty

You can open the AirTag up and disconnect the speaker. There’s plenty of videos on UA-cam on how to disable the speaker. Makes it vastly harder to find then.

Great video! Much appreciated!

Dylan, thanks for addressing this. Bikepacking is unfortunately full of the inclusivity over reality mindset. Objective truth exists, no matter how triggered these people are. Again, appreciate someone being real on this.

Oh man idk. In Finland you don’t have to lock your car or your house. You can leave em wide open and noting will happpen. But your bike might get stolen even with the toughest lock

How do you think an air tag would fare in your city, should your bike be stolen? - Not well. Do you have any creative ideas for bike anti-theft options while backpacking, that I didn't cover here? - I don't. Thanks for watching, and remember to plan pack and pedal. - Thank you for your efforts. Will do.

Samsung tag.

Completely agree with the warrants. I had a bike that got stolen that was sitting in the thief's house for a whole year. The police told us they will need a warrant to get in, and that never happened. Luckily the thief pawned the bike off and it ended up sitting in a pawn shop, where we were allowed to recover it!

Really sad to see The Endurance Studio posting this inflammatory and disrespectful clickbait. That's an unsubscribe from me.

I removed the speaker from my airtag that’s on my bike.

Olympic, UCI, NCAA and most organized governing bodies have testosterone standards for trans-women athletes. Is there a held standard for trans-women athletes with FKT's? Has Austin Killips met UCI standard even though FKT's are not UCI events?

Sure you can disable the speaker... But you can't disable the UWB pinpoint ability.... However.. You can by a device that works on the Apple find my system but does not have UWB.... Chipolo One Spot... And you can disable the speaker... They will only know there is one in the area of 30'... Yeah the small the items the easier it is to locate but without pinpoint - its added time to allow the search. Awesome for cars.

I was so jazzed to see this pop up. I rode the loopy loop and was the other rider who took Bodhi's incorrect gpx. I realized at 1:30 am day 2 when I finally had service to check trackleaders, was super confused but able to see Bodhi went my way too so didn't feel too bad. Awesome interview. Super tough route but really fun, beautiful, and rewarding.
