Love the vid! checked multiple vids to see a demo of the product, but couldn't find one until I found you! great work!

[@jacquelinewright-jordan2573]

Thanks a lot for your explanation and demo. I watched quite a few videos on this remote setup, but they brought even more confusion. Yours is the best one that provided clarity. Thanks again.

[@EbikeEscape]

Glad it helped

[@NicolaMs007]

totally agree 100%

[@NicolaMs007]

thank-you for the video, have just received my WSDCAM Bike Alarm, which am getting ready for when I receive my Amp'd Bros Fat electric bike the Ace - X Demon... Have already paid for it, getting the lights and alarm system ready for when it comes, literally can't wait to install this alarm on the bike itself.....have already tried it out with arming then slightly moving it, and oh boy is it LOUD, had to quickly turn it off, am grateful that I've brought this, in conjunction with the Abus U Lock and chain with another lock in total, am safe to say that my e-bike will be secure. Also by arming the alarm when I go into the caravan at night, it would alert me to anyone hanging around the bike at night....thank-you once again for the video, showing how to change the settings and volume. A great bike you have there as well.

[@ILoveChanelLynn]

Appreciate your video! You are Awesome. Bought a different alarm with same concept but because of your video I was able to set mine up successfully. Thank you so much!

[@EbikeEscape]

Perfect!

[@qolspony]

I purchased a similar alarm with a ulock alarm. So the security is greatly modified. But I still think it is important to have a visual on your bike to minimize theft. But if you absolutely don't want your bike stolen, don't bring it unless you right next to it at all times, or you making short trips to the store. Another thing to look out for is parts. Someone with a simple tool as a screwdriver, pliers or adjustable wrench can take whatever they want on your bike, like mirrors, handlebars, seat, ect. I have been researching various ways to secure these sections. They are triangle and star screws that most people are not aware of. But getting the right screw or bolt fitting is challenging, but it is definitely worth the effort.

[@kimhyunwoo8983]

If you’re extremely worried you could just weld the parts to the bike, or do what I did, I built a triangle box that fits in the frame and mounted most of the expensive stuff in there then have a lock on it. I’ve also air tagged both the bike and my battery separately so if someone stole either I’d immediately know where they went

[@kevindarkstar]

Can't agree with you on the throw it in a bag idea, the alarm works on shock sensing, so fitting it physically to the frame means better operation, also as you mentioned in bags ect does muffle the sound too 👍🏻

[@EbikeEscape]

Fair enough!

[@uncrunch398]

Maybe there's a way to fashion something of metal to make it difficult to remove and also amplifies it.

[@Doc.Holiday]

Agree, and also agree with the creator that several might be the answer fastened with aluminum zip ties, or better yet stainless steel hose clamps. What you are trying to do is keep the bike from being stolen.

[@Doc.Holiday]

@@uncrunch398… stainless steel hose clamps.

[@GospelGary]

Your video appeared on my...whatever-it's-called. I'm a lowly bicycle rider on a 30+ yr. old Mountain Road Bike*. Intrigued by the Alarm Topic, I ventured in & learned said Alarm is not restricted to electric bikes; Oh no: there are no Laws, Statutes, Ordinances against purchasing one of these Alarms for use on a Bicycle, or even a Motorcycle. So I daringly bought one. Note: Insomuch as this young Electric Bike Only man's video is now 3 yrs. old, please note that a newer Model of the same Alarm is now available. *Mountain Bike that I've adapted for Road Riding. (I'm also updating another 30+ yr. old Mountain Bike for Trail Riding) Took up cycling here recently...after 56/57 years; driving since I was 15 yrs. old...and I LOVE IT! Low impact, but high intensity. Belt tightened a notch (soon to be two). No "brain fog" as one must needs make many, "snap" decisions & execute immediately. Sleep like a baby. Eat like a horse (high fiber, high protein). Cycling also helps the "boy parts" (think, old man...numerous nocturnal #1 trips to the bathroom) greatly.

You dont need to hide it. Kind of helps if you dont. Im getting one - i came up with the absolute brain wave of using Dual lock on my Batteries and mounting it on the battery pack - then i can swap it between packs as i swap batterys - genious huh

[@Tsch6373]

Got a later version that has a rechargeable battery. Can hide it under the rear basket, between it and the rear fender to prevent a perp with a hammer from smashing it... Will have access to the charging port on the battery pack.

[@MIDTOWNE1]

I brought one before my bike arrived. They may try to take it but it's not my job to make it easy. Two bike locks and one alarm (I live in a busy city on the east coast) because most crimes happen as crimes of opportunity.

[@EbikeEscape]

Sounds like you have a good setup. I am thankful we don't have to worry as much.

[@rentedduckliing]

I’m in a safer area but I go with 2 u locks, alarm, and apple AirTag that is hidden. But I leave my bike outside of work for 8+ hours

[@briansmith8898]

Exactly. A determined thief *WILL* steal your bike, no matter how secure you make it, short of hiring armed guards or something. Most thieves are looking for the easiest score, though, so making your bike harder to steal will pay dividends. Locking the frame with a u-lock, the wheels with a cable, and attaching an alarm will deter almost anyone. If your saddle has a quick release, attach a smaller cable for that, or consider just taking it off and throwing it in your bag. For e-bikes, lock the battery, or take it with you.

[@PrinceUnyqueTv]

Me to but i have 3 Abus key locks... safe the best ​@rentedduckliing

[@Potato-mu7nu]

I wish it had a true panic button, that set the alarm off from the remote. From what I can tell only vibration sets the alarm off.

[@jarikinnunen1718]

Is device and remote control paired by code? If not, safety level is low.

[@jolly1039]

Use stainless steel zip tie.. takes forever to cut it off

[@EbikeEscape]

Good tip!

[@danpf]

I was just thinking that the plastic zip tie is the weak point, apparently one can disassemble the alarm easily with a cutter. A stainless steel one is certainly much better.

[@hemandestroyall]

You did the best explanation review. You only forgot to say that the alarm stops sounding after 30 seconds if there is no more shaking on it

[@jolly1039]

[@EbikeEscape]

Yes I believe so

[@Ohmman]

in all these reviews it doesnt sound like it does anything like make a sound in the remote itself, like, if youre in a heavily walled store and you wouldnt be able to hear the alarm for yourself, and need just an extra bit of notification.

[@EbikeEscape]

Correct, for that maybe an Airtag. This is just an additional tool you can use.

[@--JohnDoe]

Thank you. Those paper instructions suck.

[@johnwhite3156]

How do you disable the sos function

[@EbikeEscape]

I believe it's just the unlock button.

[@Tsch6373]

After it's been enabled. If the SOS sounds alarm, stand the bike up to silence it.

[@michaelkleinberg8301]

Get a U-lock that is at least 18mm thick like the Kryptonite fahgettaboudit mini, this lock cannot be removed with a bolt cutter, but the other most important thing is an alarm that can TEXT you when the bike is disturbed so that you can get to it before anything can happen, time is the most critical factor.

[@qolspony]

[@mavicarbon]

This setup might save the day if you nipped into the convenience store for couple minutes and you are within earshot otherwise it will be gone. Insurance works , locks mostly don't. The lock is there to by you some time only. An expensive e-bike should not be left unguarded. Once cordless grinders came on the scene, no one has a chance, so try to stay with the bike at all times. Btw that goes for any bike that catches the eye of pro thieves. Cheers.

What do you think the purpose of a bicycle is? Some people use it For exercise. Some people use it for transportation. Some use it for both. I use my E bike for transportation and to ride with my friends sometimes. The friend stuff is partially social, part exercise. My electric bike goes nowhere unless I peddle it. It’s “pedal assist“. Weighs about 75 pounds usually with my two panniers, two locks and whatever else I’m carrying. It can carry over 100 pounds plus myself. If the purpose of your bike is so you can wear Lycra and everyone can know how fit you are, then, yeah, an ebike would defeat that purpose. If you’re trying to get some exercise and use your car less., Pollute the Earth less, maybe just sell your car, then an E bike might make a lot of sense for you.
