Was awesome being involved in this video and seeing the response from the recovery team. We did our best to make it hard for them and they still managed to track us down whilst on the move. And peeps, please read the description before going off on one 😊
The problem with trackers is that they can be blocked or detected. Thieves are adapting to them and some carry the kit to counter them. Whether it be a van to act as a faraday cage, or a signal detector that helps them home in on the tracker and remove it. I know of a company that had four trackers fitted into a four vans. All done properly, and hidden. The vans all got pinched, and the trackers were left in the car park.
so true
It's same reason few bike thieves learn to pick a lock. They are lazy buggers. They just want to get an angle grinder and use that.
@@andrewnorris5415 I resorted to using a Litelok X1 and putting a camera in my toptube bag so I can monitor the bike when it's out of my sight.
@@manoz6194what camera do you use if you don’t mind me asking
@@Helioss_ It's a "small 4G camera". It doesn't really have a brand name. I bought it on ebay but aliexpress sell the same model aswell.
I have had bikes stolen before now I’m much more careful and cautious but always worried about it when I go to a city so this is fantastic fair play to these guys! Cheers for this demo to
I love the way you keep your channel excited by doing different ideas, visiting new cities, showing different E-bikes, putting trackers to the test and being hunted in London. This channel is thriving and it’s only getting better 🙌🏽
I try to keep the content exciting and I appreciate that 99 percent of you enjoy it and leave comments like this, obviously this is a prepared video as they had to agree to my idea 💡 it's just a shame people comment without 1. Reading the title 2. Watching the actual video before commenting haha
Thing is with GPS trackers ..the GPS signal can be blocked for example by storing stolen item in a lockup/building/van. Far better to get a tracker that also connects to the cellular mobile network and also emits an RF signal. They do exist
Yeah like auto matriks m track thats hands down the best tracker availible in the uk
Out of curiosity how many recovery agents do they have working for them and how would they go about a theft in a rural area? I think this was a good video idea but not really a real world scenario outside of London.
I would keep using the airtag (just replace the battery) in addition always better to double up - also works in areas where GPS is bad (it doesn't use GPS it uses bluetooth with other devices around it) and provides proximity tracking when near by far more accurately than GPS (AR/point your phone in the right direction etc.)
Ok, this was legitimately exciting 😮 I don’t have a bike, but want “backpedal“ installed in my life ASAP!
So good to see you get sponsored mate! Your content is tops I hope more companies contact you for sponsored vids!
SO what's the situation if they track down a thief who is still on the bike and refusing to pull over? as these guys have zero power, they can't touch the thief or cause him any harm. so i'm not sure what would actually happen once they track the bike down?
Such a fun video and very informative, too!
Im not in the UK but it looks like a good product in fairness. Hope it does well as it would be great if it was expanded to scooters and motorbikes.
looks like i have to get myself a back pedal tracker and for less than 150 quid i think its really worth it ! luv the content london eats been with you from 78k subs and you have never failed to post good content keep up the goodwork lad!!!
Sick video dude, the single biggest disadvantage of e-bikes is theft imo so nice to see there are businesses out there working on solutions ❤
Loved this it’s a good insight thanks for this
I hope you got paid well for that ad mate. Fair play
nope not paid a penny its a video idea i had and i approached them with it and they agreed, they hooked me up with a tracker and was even kind enough to offer my viewers a 30 day free trial promo
That's still gifted, noone else could do that unless they had following :)@@LondonEats
Really liked this video.
I do wonder ehat happens if these guys track a bike down and the people who stole it give them hassle. I mean the kind of the people to steal a bike arent just going to hand it over easy.
Yes mate I really enjoyed that video and the camera that filmed you ate the end that picture was super clear so was the mic 👍🏽
Amazing video that service honestly is so impressive
Automatrics MTrack vibes 🙌🏻 (they have a great UA-cam channel too) - Great video dude, this is impressive stuff!
Yessss thats the best tracking company going!!! Fantastic work
Loved the video, something a little different.
Enjoyed the suspense
I've always been terrified of dropping $$$ on an ebike and then getting it stolen. This hasn't premiered yet but I hope it has a happy ending!
It's a promotion. Bike was never genuinely stolen
bikes get stolen everyday and back pedal does recover bikes... im obviously not going to let someone take my bike and let them hunt for it but if that does happen i know they will eventually get it back
@@otobama4684 it's not misleading you're just thick as pig sh*t 😂🐽
Its why I use my bike for quick situations.. never leave my bike outside for long, cause its expensive. 900$ mini fold bike, not a e-bike. When people leave their bike for a long time, its why they get stolen. In the US its mainly catalytic converters which are popular and stolen within minutes, from cars/trucks..
Cool concept for a little different content well done mate! 🔥🤟
Dam!! VERY impressed indeed I'm looking in to these.
Their agents must be brave going after armed bike thief gangs
Yeah I wouldn't do their job, but they know it comes with these risks I guess
If they can’t get it back safely I can imagine they’d ring the police who could handle anything further. And provide them with proof it’s inside a premises if their was a legal issue
police in UK, especially London will never help you even if you give them the thief's address (real story that happened to many people and me lol)
@@MrSmithington
@@MrSmithington ...Police need warrant ...first thing they will do is knock on door ..If they even turn up ...then they will need warrant .....by the time they come back to that house the bike will be stripped down to nothing or and moved ...
OCG Wouldn't attack or fight if a Bike is recovered through tracking Wouldn't be in their benefit.
Easier to walk away from something than be arrested and took off the streets
The Value is not in the bike its in the cutting equipment and the perpetrator to them
Interesting video, The tracking device seems a good option. It would be interesting to know their recovery rate 👍 👍
my bro smashing it!!!
Great vid fella!!!!
You can take the magnet out of the AirTag and have it working still but not giving any sounds out. Followed a UA-cam video to undo the three clips around the battery case.
The best thing is to invest in a good GPS and have a calm head, I have recovered 3 bicycles, for all delivery the first product you should buy is a GPS
London Eats Security Service 😎
Don't steal bikes kids or you'll get Lord London come get ya. 👊
It may not be 100% perfect, but at least companies are trying to do something. Also this video just reminds me to stay well away from Oxford St until at least January! Too many people!
impressive.. and any attempt to counter the low lifes that nick what's not theirs in the first place can only be applauded..👏👏..
puuuuhh - really heavy ad but the shoot for this video looked like a kinda fun night ;-)
Nice. Great content 👌
so if they can't recover, they will cover the cost of the bike via insurance? pretty smart. getting my new bike today and really thinking about purchasing this to go with it. cheers for the info
I wish, this (or something like this) was available in Georgia but alas, it's impossible
Good tech to include in a light-hearted way on your channel! Peace.
that phone call voice seems like the TikTok meme voice xD good tech and service though! Considering this...
Does smart water work on bikes? in the past, if you had their laptop cover they had a 96% recovery rate if they could not find your stolen laptop they replaced it
I'm a new food delivery rider (Ebike) and I was wondering what you'd recommend for holding drinks in place in the thermal bags any tips for a beginner would be appreicated ive been avoiding mcdonalds orders because too worried ill have spillage
Very cool mate!
2:57 What's most upsetting is they steal people's bikes, then never even sell them. They just end up in piles or stuck in someone's flat, because they can only think as far as stealing. They just destroy the value of everything they touch. Who even buys from these scumbags anyway?
Not sure if this is a stupid question or not with whole naming being back”pedal” but do they cover e-scooters?
We need BackPedal or a similar service in Chicago and NYC, USA lol
Recovery agents don't ask for a customer details anymore they just on their way somewhere in London 😅
Absolute amazing videos it is super annoying getting your bike stolen i don't drive a bike anymore got my license so either on a motorbike or in a car but yeah stay safe guys and lock your bikes even if it is 5 minutes
First watch the video then write a comment. Is it so hard? .. Awesome video! Well done London Eats
Useful video. I'm interested in what they do once theyve hunted the person down. Do they try and run them down? Video them? Tazer them? Call for police backup? Do they wear body armour?
Nice video, however it just felt like a sponsored video. Made me laugh when you said you wanted to not move around to make it easy. What’s the point then, because thieves are gonna do the opposite. My bike got robbed. Turned up at the location and it was in a van with lots of other stolen bikes. Police were uninterested. Didn’t want to confront on my own so had to suck up the loss.
Can it be tracked in underground car parks, basements flats etc?
That is so awesome.
This video thumbnail has secret agent vibes. Do more of these mystery staged events, makes for great content 👍🏻
It's all well and good cycling up to you in a demo setup but how does it work with actual bike thieves. Not like they'll just stop cycling and be like yeah you got me. Also what if they're armed? What if the bike has been put somewhere that can't be reached? A tracker on your bike seems like a smart idea but I just wonder how much this company can actually do to get the bike back.
Check there Instagram page they always uploading how they recover bikes
That's sick👊
It's not that bad.
Real shame companies like this even need to exist. I do wondee what happens if they catch an actual scumbag that is liable to pull a knife or worse on them, rather than a chill youtuber.
BackPedal’s recovery teams consist of ex police, military & security personnel so are trained to deal with certain situations, good comment!
The Tracker Wired into the EBike battery .......That a failure ....aint hiding that with out drilling hole into frame for cables ....
Have you seen the size of this tracker it two them wired together then wired into the battery ....Good Luck Hiding that
How does that company work? Once they track down the bike, and there are dangerous looking people. If they call the Police, then thieves will just ride away. Seems like a very risky line of work to be the recovery agent, because most thieves will definitely get confrontational.
I think once they have identified the bike they might follow and wait for an opportunity to "steal" it back. They certainly wouldn't risk confronting a thief.
Would the tracker work if the bike was inside a van, it being a 'metal box'?
If your looking for a tracker go with automatriks m track they find stolen stuff in vans/warehouses/lockups/garages they are hands down the best tracker in the uk
I’d love to see you working for or with them and recovering some bikes
Great idea!
yes, I would love to see this and your sub count would probably explode bro @@LondonEats
In you business, think of that as 1 order per month that could save you not only the price of the bike but a lot of time off the road = lost orders.
Are BP only based in England? Im in Scotland id be interested in something like this as just paid 5k on a sale for a 7k ebike! Bosch do a tracker that fits to the motor but i reckon it would be so easy to unplug as its got to be in one location mounted to the motor
They don't bother with angle grinders now.
The use a pipe cutter to attack the frame you attached the bike to
lol Do they even Stop for a wee mate 😂
if thieves are not stupid then they can just take off and throw away the tracker
Oh man! Im so sad of what happenned to you bro
"This is not a paid advert/sponsored video" why do you have a code for their site then?
Great video though really enjoyed it! :)
Because I asked for something for my viewers I don't get paid anything if people use the free trial and I don't mind as its a great service
Fair enough mate! @@LondonEats
Awesome!!
Nice but I wish they had something like this here in Los Angeles California cause the police don't care to locate it when you report it.
But, is the recovering person ready to engage in physical altercation if the thief is not going to let it go?
The Litelok d lock is the best you can buy.
awesome vid
Will they even go to Ireland or Scotland if the signal is there?
I was a bit annoyed at first because of the concept of this video being an ad, but if you're like me realise he hasn't been paid a penny and did it for the content (as well as the tracker) but fair play mate.
Nice to see products being tested in real time and not on fake websites
Well done for the trackers on the bikes.
Like that wasn't staged for the sponsor. What happens when they put the bike on a boat and take it to France or Germany.
I asked the same question as it is something I would be concerned about happening and I was told they would get to the bike before that even happens
Check out automatrics m track they are the best in the uk and have even gone to calais to recover a car thats how good they are! They have a youtube channel and they have recovery videos from real life not just a demo real life situtations and have a 98% recovery rate
youtube.com/@AutomatricsMtrack?si=DHp9SSAkJg0ZuC3W
Mate I don’t know how the numbers are like compared to like the population in ratio and whether that’s a lot, depending on how many people use bikes too. but damn there are people hanging around to ride out and find your bikes?!
My friend’s bike got stolen, he found it on fb market place. He then went to the seller place and spotted his bike in the property. He called the police, funny is police said they couldn’t do anything about it. Even tracker can help u found your lost bike, u still can’t get the bike back. U lost not only the bike and also the tracker.
You are handsome, enterprising and tightly wound... "Go get'em!"
is this only for uk ?
Hide in a multi story Carpark… no GPS signal 🟰easy peasy
How does it work? Do you need to change it? Batteries? Don’t really explain much
Check out their website in the description for more info on this
All well and good but what do they do when they locate your bike and are confronted with a bunch of machete wielding yobs?! "can i have that bike back please??!" The other alternative is it will be locked up in a location with many other stolen bikes and be completely inaccessible (as is even stated at 2:55). This is a gimmick unfortunately
Pret a Manger is a staple in new york city I love the soup and sandwiches.
Great content mixing it up as always
Glad you enjoy it!
Which city next #Bath
so cool!
Clearly a paid promotion
do you know if use are in Australia ? or any similar companies that do this in Australia
Nice one
I get a foldable ebike that way take it with you everywhere. Failing that getca litelock x1 or x3 or hiplock d1000. All extremely angle grinder resistant. Get an alarm you can connect to phone with and alert you. 4g camera's if u can
looks good, what kind of powers do they have if they spot a thief on the road?
BackPedal’s recovery teams consist of ex police, military & security personnel so are trained to deal with certain situations should they arise
They don't have any powers it'd just be like if u fitted your own tracker and tracked it yourself
Do they do Motorbikes too or just bicycles?
Its all well and good having a tracker on any vehicle,but if the tracking company locate the stolen vehicle their service does not include recovering the vehicle and the police wont be interested so where does that leave the rightful owner?
When I was like 12, I had a couple kids stop me as I was leaving a store, said that I had stolen their bike. Almost got in a fight with several kids at once.
The alleged owner went home to get he serial number to his stolen bike while they others stopped me from leaving. Cops showed up as he was coming back with his dad and the serial number. It did not match and they apologized and let me go. Not related but something that I never forgot.
I've got a it'smybike tracker installed on my bike but the gps position is really terrible and the app is total crap. They don't even tell you the signal strength of your tracker. You also don't get a proposed accuracy of the gps signal like you do on your phone. At the beginning I had to call their hotline because I thought those were bugs not features and had to talk to their callcenter which had some extremely bored and uninterested people on it. Propably would have gotten a different one if I knew.
After the experience with my tracker they propably should have gotten into a building. The signal can get even worse then.
Don't you mean you hope they get you really fast!

This all sounds very promising but this seemed somewhat stage. The way tracker company happen to capture themselves. I do wonder was this completely random (i.e. not organising this video). Would the tracker company be so prompt to get people to go out and locate it or do they send riders out 'whenever they can' and if they are busy then your not going to get such a responsive outcome...
