LITELOK: Real-world data, success stories, and community involvement, to raise global awareness of bike security.
LITELOK has launched a new live interactive map visualising bike theft statistics, designed to increase global awareness of bicycle and motorcycle theft trends and hotspots.
The feature, now available on the LITELOK website, enables cyclists, motorcyclists and scooter riders to explore real-time, continuously updated data showing where thefts are occurring around the world. The tool aims to help riders better understand risk patterns and promote greater vigilance and prevention.
“We built this to help riders stay informed about bike theft activity and locations; and to share it around. If an area has no reported hotspot or story on the map, it should not be assumed to be free from risk. Our mission is for riders to Worry Less and Ride More.”
– Prof. Neil Barron, LITELOK Founder & CEO
We have combined attempted theft data reported by LITELOK customers, government crime statistics, and insights from community engagement to better understand patterns in bike theft activity and targeted locations. Our goal goes beyond simply securing bikes, we aim to keep riders informed about theft trends so they can stay aware, make informed decisions, and better protect their property.
Building on the bike theft surveys we conducted in previous years, we have connected this Tested on Thieves research to our new map-based data to create a more comprehensive view of theft patterns. By linking these insights together, we aim to better support riders worldwide with clearer, more actionable understanding of bike theft trends.
