    Would they allow you to use mapamobile for a bike though? I could see them saying no as the number of kids that go missing is pretty low compared to the amount of bikes? Otherwise Im gonna do this I reckon, I gave up on trackets tbh if the bike gets nicked its nicked and thats it, I onyl use a disclock nowadays and a cover to 'hide' it, I have an R6 and not stolen yet after 8 months commuting. (mind you its not parked in London)

    All the mapamobile service does is tell you where the phone is, they don't know whether it's in a child's pocket or hidden under the seat of your bike. As I understand it there's a set fee 'per find'.

    However, you should maybe use their free trial service in the areas where your bike is likely to be nicked from to make sure that you get worthwhile accuracy......
