Also - as use of airtags now flags up on to the nearby phones there's no point in this. Thieves will just locate it and remove it.

24 hours or so before non registered users are told it is there I think. So there is a time period it might be useful, problem is if the location is a block of flats as CM found out when trying to locate his Brompton.

Will work great until a kerb / rock strike snaps the inside of the valve stem off and the tyre deflates in a few seconds.

Having read the specs the min tyre size is 38c which brings a lot of gravel bikes into the equation.

I like this idea.  Shame it wont fit in most road rims.
