Last week while I was avoiding my responsibilities I came across this viral YouTube video where a man was able to recover his stolen bike using AirTags. As someone who had a motorcycle that was stolen when I was a teenager, this video had me thinking about how convenient it is to track your bike with an AirTag. I never saw my awesome motorcycle again, but fortunately you’ll never have to go through that.
I also remember being a freshman at college, and loving the freedom of life living away from home – the good and the bad. Me and my trusty beach-cruiser, racing to class in the morning, trying to not be late (again), and parking in a sea of bicycles at the bike rack as fast my U-lock would let me… only to finish classes hours later, and not remember where exactly I sleepily locked my bike in my morning haze… well, if only I were younger (!) and in college now, I’d definitely put an AirTag on my bike. Not only were bikes stolen on the regular at my school, which AirTags would help prevent, but they were just generally a pain to find after a long day or night.
Here are reviews of the top 3 Airtag accessories for tracking your bicycle if it ever gets stolen, or even if you just cannot find it in the huge crowds of bikes in the bike rack:
- 1. BikeTaggr Review – Secure Bike Mount for Apple AirTag
- The BikeTaggr is a great option if you want to securely conceal your AirTag and ensure you can still track your lost or stolen bike. Made out of 3 layers of hard premium cast acrylic, BikeTagger is designed specifically to mount an AirTag under your bike’s saddle or water bottle cage (although you can mount them in other places using zip ties, this accessory will definitely keep your AirTag intact and in place). This is a great product in terms of AirTag security, as its tri-layer mount makes it very hard for the AirTag to come loose, even during bumpy rides. The only downside is probably the fact that it doesn’t protect the AirTag’s face, making it susceptible to scratches / also visible to the eye if you choose to mount it somewhere obvious (such as on the handlebars) as opposed the more discrete and recommended locations under the bike seat / saddle or water bottle cage. The BikeTaggr is only available in black and comes one to an order.

- 2. Moment Curved Surface Mount for Airtags
- The Moment Curved Surface Mount for Airtags is a great option if you really want to be discreet with your AirTags. Its simple design covers the entirety of the AirTag with flexible molded rubber so that it is totally concealed, and there is also a foam lining on the inside to prevent the AirTags from rattling around or getting scratched. In terms of mounting, its flexible curved surface with rugged adhesive feature allows you to stick it onto pretty much any part of your bike, like under your saddle, water bottle cage or directly to the frame. The Moment Curved Surface Mount is also watertight once mounted so you don’t ever have to worry about damaging your AirTag and it comes with extra adhesive pads so you can easily remove it and place it elsewhere. It comes in matte black, one to a pack.

- 3. Aimtel Adhesive Silicone Stick-on AirTag Bike Mount Review
- The Aimtel Adhesive Silicone Mount is a cheaper alternative to the Moment Curved Surface Mount, if you’re looking for a discrete and reliable way to attach AirTags to your bicycle. Made of soft eco-friendly silicone with a protective rim, it is shock absorbent, durable and anti-scratch (although it doesn’t fully protect the face of your AirTag – which is actually helpful so you can hear the AirTag while you track it). Much like the Moment Mount, this accessory is made to stick directly to your bike, however, it doesn’t work very well on non-flat surfaces… So it which shouldn’t be a problem if you’re planning to place it under the seat, but won’t stick very well to the bike frame itself. Its simple design makes it very easy and quick to install and it is even designed to be easy to clean. The Aimtel Adhesive Silicone Mount comes in packs of 4 and is available in both black and white.
