biketrac by Road Angel

Bike Trac combines GPS, GSM, RF and movement technology to record and relay (in real time) its position to the Bike Trac central servers at pre-defined intervals. The information is then displayed to the subscriber via a secure online tracking portal in order for them to see where their bike is, and where it has been.

Should a bike fitted with Bike Trac be stolen, the owner will be notified by an SMS text message and / or email. The bike owner can then work with the authorities in recovering their stolen bike.

Journey Tracking

Bike Trac does not stop working when you deactivate it... when you deactivate the system, to go for a ride, Bike Trac will switch into journey mode. When in journey mode, bike Trac will frequently monitor your journey by speaking with the Bike Trac servers at very short intervals. This means that when you get back home you can log onto your secure online Bike Trac portal and view breadcrumb trails of exactly where you ve been. You can also generate reports on how many miles you have travelled and what (approximate) speeds you were going.

Press Release:

Road Angel Group launches Bike Trac – the UK s first interactive security and tracking system for motorbikes

• Alerts to unauthorised movements of motorbikes
• Users can see where their motorbike is in real time via a personalised web-based tracking system, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
• Tracks journeys so users can see where they ve been, how many miles they ve travelled, and which routes they took

50,000 motorbikes are stolen in the UK every year... 40% are never seen by their owners again!

Motorbikes are an easy target for thieves, as they can be all too easily bundled into the back of a van or lorry. Bike Trac, a revolutionary new product developed by Road Angel Group, has been designed to give motorbike owners peace of mind by alerting them as soon as their bike is moved.

Using a combination of GPS, GPRS and movement sensor technology, Bike Trac monitors the location and movement of motorbikes and alerts the owner by SMS text message & email if their bike moves and they re not on it.

Each user has access to their own secure web-based tracking system that they can log into day or night to see where their bike is in real time. If their bike is stolen, they can use the system to track its movements and work with the authorities in getting it back.

Graham Mackie, Managing Director of Road Angel Group said, “We developed Bike Trac after talking to our customers and in response to the high levels of motorbike theft in the UK. Motorbikes are an easy target for thieves, and with the higher levels of crime we are seeing since the start of the economic downturn, Bike Trac is a product designed to protect motorbikes and give their owners peace of mind”.

In addition to its security benefits, Bike Trac also monitors journey information. This allows users to log in to their secure tracking system after their ride to see where they ve been, how many miles they travelled and which routes they took. It also monitors the state of both its internal battery and the host bike s battery – alerting the owner if either falls below an acceptable threshold.

The combination of security alerts, the unrestricted access to a personalised tracking system, and the journey reporting features makes Bike Trac the UK first interactive and dynamic tracking device designed specifically for bikers.

Retail Pricing:
Bike Trac retails for £299.99 including VAT.

Subscription

A monthly subscription charge of £7.99 is also required in order to cover data transfer costs. Yearly options payable up-front are also available.
