Our local decathlon is still being affected by COVID-19 measures, last time I was there a few weeks ago, they were still implementing a queuing system and limiting number of people in store, this might explain difficulty in getting a booking!
That’s great news then... I’m delighted with mine, but it’s nice to know that I’m covered for all eventualities.. oh, and I’ve only done 155 miles so far.
I have the same bike. Not had any problems so far (touch wood) I’m sure that the torque sensor would be covered by warranty if damaged through wear and tear. Best speak with decathlon to be sure.
Well as my pal David used to say “you buy cheap, you buy twice” unit is useless. Tried a couple of different SIM cards to no avail.. sent back for refund, and now I’m looking at the another option. The o2 sim that I bought for 20p will go in my GSM home alarm system that’s been working without...
Hi!
Yes an alarm with transmitter would be perfect! The only solution that I have come across is gps trackers that have built in vibration alarm. This would send you a text message if the bike was moved. There are a few on Amazon and eBay but I haven’t tried any of these. Quick update though...
I agree, my bike is secured with two gold class d locks, plus I have a cable that goes through the front wheel. I have an alarm fitted and detach the battery when leaving the bike for longer than a “cafe stop” I have another lock at work which is a heavy kryptonite chain lock that is left there...
I still think the Vodafone option is good. And at £2 a month to protect a bike costing upwards of £1000 then its a no brainer. There must be a way to hide it in the battery box and have a 5volt tap for the usb charge port on the tracker!
I notice Amazon have gps trackers disguised as rear lights. Plus there are trackers available that fit into seat post, although they are expensive! I did look at the Vodafone one, £2 a month is nothing! And it looks small enough to hide in a battery box or under seat. I have my alarm under seat...
Halfords have said he can bring it in on Saturday and have the chain replaced, apparently they said nothing about being careful on this type of bike with mid mount motor, which i find pretty poor!!
