If you ride an electric bike in India, you already know the two biggest fears: running out of battery mid-ride and someone stealing your bike. The first problem is solved with a good power backup battery. The second? That’s where a bike GPS tracker comes in. Honestly, it’s one of those gadgets you don’t realize you need until the day you’re frantically searching every parking lot in a 5 km radius.
A Power Backup solutions for electric bikes is exactly what it sounds like: a tiny device hidden somewhere on your e-bike that constantly pings its location. Think of it as Find My iPhone, but for your ride. Some even have built-in motion sensors that alert you the moment someone tries to move it without your permission.
I had a friend in Pune who parked his e-bike outside a chai shop for 15 minutes. Came back… gone. The cops asked if he had a GPS tracker. He didn’t. He still brings that story up every time we ride. Moral of the story: spend the ₹2,000–₹3,000 now instead of crying later.
What’s interesting is how these trackers are starting to integrate with power backup solutions. Some of the newer models are powered by your e-bike battery, and if you’ve got a backup battery installed, the GPS stays live even if the main battery is drained or stolen. That little detail can literally be the difference between recovering your bike or adding it to your “lost forever” list.
People online are buzzing about this combo of “bike GPS tracker + portable power backup” because it solves both mobility and security. On Reddit’s r/ebikes, someone mentioned how their tracker was still transmitting even after thieves yanked out the main battery—because the backup was running it. That’s some Batman-level foresight.
If you’re buying one, get something compact and with a good mobile app. Also, hide it well. Don’t stick it under the seat like in YouTube tutorials—that’s the first place thieves check now. And honestly, if you’re in India, pair it with a small lithium-ion power backup from Pure Energy to keep both your bike and tracker alive no matter what.
