BRA GJORT! Du fick tillbaka cykeln, fantastiskt! Min cykel blev stulen från mitt cykelförråd. Så JÄVLA SURT! Önskar att jag hade airtaggat min cykel också.
I’m from the US and I fix bike on a daily, don’t own a shop or anything but would have customer bring me there bikes by a park and I would bring my tools. To make the story short was fixing a bike one day and a woman comes and confronts me about saying I stole her bike. I politely told her I was fixing it for a customer and that I can give her there contact info or she can wait till he comes and gets it(5mins later) person comes and woman confronts him, the man not even saying a word just ran from the lady. I later found out he robber her the night before. So I’m not saying he didn’t but can we just have a small hope that he was really just trying to make a quick buck
@@Nobreakmedia Good on you for doing the work for free. Sure it sucks the time you put into it but shows your true character. Best of luck to you. I think the appropriate follow up question to "they wanted me to fix it" should be "what's broken that needs to be fixed?" - if they struggle to answer that question they probably stole it. If they give a half decent answer as to something being wrong maybe they aren't lying about it being broken. Or calling the person who asked for the bike to be fixed like you did also works.
If it was true that his friend gave him this bike, he would have call first to his friend and say that somebody saying its his bike, nobody would give away someones bike that easy.
Be careful where you put the airtag. Thieves know to check common places like under the seat. But putting it inside of the frame or an accessory can diminish the effectiveness of the airtag’s signal. That makes installation more of a challenge. Good luck!
@@sundvisson I am NOT advocating trying to put it in the frame! First, if you damage the frame it’s like you have lost your bike anyway. Second, placing the airtag inside the frame can shield the tag’s sending/receiving to render it useless. It’s complicated.... Where do I put the tag so that it is exposed enough to be effective while also concealing it so that a thief won’t be able to spot and remove it? And if you truly solve the question, you may NOT wish to post your solution or thieves will know where to spot your theft-recovery tech.
@Mikael Sundvisson I can’t give you a definitive answer because everyone’s bike is different. And you wouldn’t want to tip a thief where to look. There are some people out there who have videos that show some creative solutions. I have seen 3D printed holders that some have bolted on between the bottle cage or an accessory and the bike. Others might have a tag hidden in an accessory or below the frame instead of on top of. Some frames might not block the signal but others would prohibit the tags from being effective. Of course, under the seat is better than nothing. It really is up to you to be creative.
@@profesam8457 lmao Typical internet know-it-all. Give a bunch of "advice" then when asked to elaborate he responds with "I can’t give you a definitive answer" 😂🤡
@@keokio7 Unfortunately that relies on your local police actually caring enough, plenty of reports here of police showing little interest in helping you recover a stolen bike even if you know exactly where it is!
I found my stolen cannondale a couple months ago. I was in a van and jumped out with a machete. Dude was really chill actually and gave my bike back witjiit trouble. In my experience as a homeless cyclist, stolen bikes, while stolen, are rarely being ridden by the thief.
@@eph3672 I dont give a f..ck, my bike has GPS inside when it was stolen. I took my brother and went to thief.

I did not even talk with him, i directly hit him in the face after he opened the door and even was thinking about cutting off one of his fingers, but he cried like a baby so we just took 100 euros + 2 bikes and let him alone. And guess what, he can't even call the police because he is a thief
Dangerous business. Never leave your bike anywhere even locked. If a thief wants it bad enough they will steal it even if it has a huge chain lock. Crazy to confront an unknown person and basically put them on the spot. Maybe they have a knife. Maybe they are violent. If they are bad enough to steal maybe they are bad enough to be violent. Yes air tags are a great way to track. I have one on my bike but if my bike got stolen I’d call the police. Thieves have battery powered grinders now. They can cut through steel! Don’t leave your bike if you don’t want it stolen. Don’t confront a thief. Their next crime may be hurting you.

@@sundvisson - from the comparison videos I've been watching, it seems the Samsung Smarttags are even better than the Apple Airtags - better range, louder speaker, don't need additional accessory for attaching to keys, etc. I think the only thing that is better is that Apple has a larger network.
@@saurabhsonic Yeah that's the sticking point. The usefulness of it depends almost entirely on the density of the network. Samsung's system will only be useful if they implement it by default in every single handset they sell like Apple does. Stolen items usually go to low-income areas. That actually works more in Apple's favor, as these areas usually have cheap Chinese phones rather than Samsung, but criminals will often have iPhones as status symbols to flaunt the wealth from what they stole. So these areas often have a lot of cheap crap phones and then some nice iPhones in the mix.
I went to find my bike at a nearby a Christmas festival. I found 5-7 other cycle enthusiasts and told them my plight. One of them spotted my green BMX. I got my back without resistance. I had stored it with a flat tyre so the guy wasn't riding it around.
i got my bike back with no airtag first thing you do is post your bike online in facebook community watched and etc and scope the area the second you find out it’s been stolen i was and get the cctv footage if you can so you can help identify the thief also file a police report they will search the area for you always lock it up as well
No one just gives a bike if he doesnt know if the bike is stolen. He was lying because in my case if I know it isnt stolen I dont give the bike until the police is in the place
Not having Him arrested only keeps the problem growing. I don’t have much sympathy for a thief. Sure they all ways say wasn’t them they are the victims and in some cases that may be true but still some one gives u a bike or what ever ask questions.
@Thomas in my country, reporting anything requires a lot of paper work. But at least you can rest assured that someone will take care of it eventually.
@@sundvisson - Are the police really that busy in Sweden? I feel that it would be a very easy and quick case for them if the owner has an airtag with the exact location.
Do this 3 times and make a video out of it and not just one time upload a video with nearly no content. Its not that difficult to make a good video about this, just get more content and have a story to tell.
I know. I had the phone and recorded the wrong way. Vertical, and then reframed it in final cut program. Next time I will record with gopro plus long selfie stick :) 👊
@@sundvisson obviously if you leave a bicycle unlocked someone will take it. if they waited for some time for owner to return before taking it, then it is found not stolen. It depends where you left it unlocked aswell.
@@SheenaT73 so what happens if someone throws something away and leaves it on the street. Something that is obviously outside because it is been thrown away. Will it be called stealing then if you take it. For example a thrown away furniture. He left the bicycle in a public bicycle parking spot, but it was unlocked. You can't say it's strealing then, especially if you wait for some time before taking it to see if an owner comes.
@@bushgreen260 Yes, it is stolen. If there is a legal time limit for a bike to be at particular location, after the time has expired, then the bike can be moved ... but to a police station to be turned in to lost and found. Just because it is outside, does not mean the bike is trash that has been "thrown out". Rental scooters are all over the place - are those free to be taken as well? After all we can pick them up and put them in the back of our van or truck.
Why give him the info on the tracker? Why not ask him for his friends name and address? Why not call the police? Have you improved cycle security in you town? This was just a vanity project for you.
You shouldn’t have told him how you knew! :(
I don't think he got it anyway but yes...shouldn't have told maybe :)
No it’s good you told him. He will think twice stealing in the future
@@MrHZ-og2uw He will think twice and then check twice for airtag or GPS before stealing, thats all
@@Temporalplace exactly, though hopefully he didnt understand as he just pointed to a headlight.. so i'd assume the thief thought he recognized it based on the UNIQUE headlight on the bike.
Thank you for the advice! Just installed an Airtag in the front light two minutes ago thanks to you! 😃
Glad to hear! Even better would be in the seat or inside a reflex. Because the light is made out of metal which blocks the signal a bit.
What is airtags range ? about 200m right ? I guess GPS is better
Only in Sweden, where you could have friendly small talk with the guy who stole your bike

Thanks for actually using an Air Tag in real life and not using a friend with a fake video like many other TH-camrs.
Sweden is the Canada of Europe. Homie feels bad for the guy who stole his bike. Love it. :)
Bulgaria
It was stupid to tell him about the AirTag. They always talk about a fictitious friend
Remove the speaker so Airtag can’t sound alert.Also don’t hide in obvious places like bike bags or under the seat.
Hi! I found your bottle with message and an air tag in Eckerö, Åland. Hälsningar från Valdemar 10 år, Åland.
