The invention described herein is a system to create a
reliable and tamper proof system to identify the owners of bicycles.
The system utilizes RFID tags integrated permanently into a bicycle
that can be scanned electromagnetically to read data contained in
the RFID tag. The RFID tag can be installed in the frame of the
bicycle during manufacture or after market by approved retailers.
The device can not be destroyed in or removed from the bicycle
without rendering its frame worthless. The RFID tag's unique code,
new owner's pertinent information, and bicycle details are entered
into a web enabled secure database at the point of sale.
Widespread adoption of this inventive idea will deter theft by
making bicycles difficult to resell illegally and increase the rates of
stolen bicycle recovery by police.
