Flying with your bike is a nerve-racking experience, with your pride and joy bundled up and entrusted to conveyor belts, shoots and baggage handlers. Thankfully, there’s a clever luggage tracker that enables you to keep tabs on your bike every step of the way – and it currently has 50% off.
Bikes have a habit of going missing in transit, with lost and found desks often offering no real help, making a luggage tracker a necessity.
When the wheels hit the runway, I can check if my bike made it. And in the event it’s lost, work out where it is.

This Universal Luggage Tracker from Simplify Living UK enables you to do the same, and now has a 50 per cent saving for a limited time only.
It uses Apple’s Find My ecosystem, meaning you’ll be able to locate your bike box using maps on your iPhone. However, that makes it incompatible with Android devices.

Priced at £21, the tracker is £14 cheaper than Apple’s own AirTag, and features a similar built-in sound alarm.
Having travelled with my bike quite a bit, one of the bigger hassles at baggage claim is knowing where the bike boxes are dumped.

One time in Nice, after waiting far too long, I found an assistant and was able to prove that my bike box was behind the magical service door.
This saved me from having to go back to the airport to pick it up later on, and I haven’t looked back.
Simlify Living UK says the tracker has a "Left Behind" alert that lets you know when your bag has moved 30m away.
The device also features a loop to attach it to a key chain or zipper – a much better design than Apple's, which requires you to buy a case to do the same.
Travelling with a bike is easier when your kit is organised, and with Simplify Living offering up to 60% off luggage and organisation gear this Black Friday, it’s a great opportunity to sort your setup before you ride
