I plan on riding bike for often and while I have invest and will continue to invest in the typical security measures (D lock, wheel lock, etc.). However, in the extreme case that it should get stolen I want a way to track it down. I was thinking about getting a Tile tracking and place it within the frame of my bike but there’s a better way please suggest it. Thanks in advance!

      For it to mean anything there has to be a registry of some kind, easily usable by law enforcement. I believe the yanks call it a VIN. Also components generally don’t have serials, so it can be parted out and ditch the frame if need be, ideally the more expensive ones would have serials that could easily be attached to the frame VIN. The goal being to be able to easily identify stolen components so as to make theft less profitable and more risky, as opposed to the open season currently.
