Headset cap replacement. There are a several different cap designs out there too.
So..... what the hell are they for?Nowhere. AirTags are not intended for tracking stolen property. Expecting it to do so only leads to disappointment and threads in this forum about how Apple "ruined" AirTags.
Tracking lost stuff, not necessarily stolen stuff. For stolen stuff it's only good if you're lucky enough that the thief doesn't have an iPhone.So..... what the hell are they for?
Can't tell if you're being facetious or not.So..... what the hell are they for?
AirTags are for finding items that you could potentially misplace and yeah, of course in some instances it can help with something stolen or not. If AirTags aren't for finding your bike, what are they to find? Your luggage? Oh no, not that. Though they DID help identify STOLEN luggage before and I'm sure countless other things.Can't tell if you're being facetious or not.
AirTag
Attach AirTag to everyday items, like your keys or a backpack, to easily keep track of them in the Find My app.www.apple.com
Notice every single scenario on that page is about something being left behind somewhere or misplaced. The commercial for them showed a guy diving into his couch when his keys fell between the cushions.
Go back and read what I said. I never said they CAN'T be used for finding stolen items. I said they're not intended for that, and expecting them to do so will lead to disappointment. You asked what they could be used for if not for stolen things, to which I responded by giving you examples and linking to Apple's own descriptions for what they are meant for. I'm sorry you don't find those responses acceptable, but I'm not sure what more you expect me to say. I don't have an AirTag on my bike because that is something I don't tend to misplace given its large size, and I'm not going to expect an AirTag to help me find it if it were to be stolen.AirTags are for finding items that you could potentially misplace and yeah, of course in some instances it can help with something stolen or not.

Yes and has a storage compartment there.Is it Carbon fibre?
Exactly. People who are expecting AirTags to track their stolen goods with excellent result are being naive 🙄Go back and read what I said. I never said they CAN'T be used for finding stolen items.

It's for finding where you last parked your bike, not for finding stolen bikeIf AirTags aren't for finding you bike, why'd Apple list Bike as one of the item type options for your Airtag?

Exactly. As long as people don't have high expectation of recovering stolen goods with the help of an AirTag, then they won't be disappointed.So here's the thing...
Not everyone who adds an AirTag to an item which might be stolen is expecting excellent results if the item is in fact stolen.
It's more a matter of probabilities. Without an AirTag, the chances of recovering a stolen bike are nearly zero. With an AirTag, the chances of recovery are fractionally higher. Particularly if the Airtag is difficult to remove, thus incenting the thief to ditch the bike and/or giving a last-location-seen.

No different from where they left their keys, wallets, handbags etc..It was a joke...
Anyway, you'll note I said "finding" your bike and attributed no reason as to why you might not know where it is.
though I'm unclear as to who the heck forgets where they parked their bicycle???
FWIW, a cycling buddy put an AirTag at various locations inside a carbon frame, and found that it severely reduced its range. He ended up putting one inside his saddlebag, and it was dramatically better. I like the idea of taping one to the underside of a saddle.
nah I tried this, it made the connection so terrible. Precision finding Was basically impossible, sound can't really play and it would barely ping gpsBest I have seen is inside the steerer tube. It’s so hidden and built into the bike.

apologies, I worded it badlyHuh?
AirTags do nothing with GPS satellite signals.
