Muc-Off Launches Stealth Tubeless Tag Holder 13

Designed to hold the Apple Air Tag, Muc-Off seeks to help curb bike theft.

Muc-Off, the global leaders in bicycle and motorcycle care and performance, is stoked to launch their latest bit of innovation: The Stealth Tubeless Tag Holder.

After the success of the brand’s Secure Tag Holder earlier this year, Muc-Off’s Product Team have designed a unique version that allows for an Apple AirTag to be stowed inside the tyre and rim of a tubeless-compatible mountain or gravel bike. This makes for the ultimate covert tracking solution, completely hidden from bike thieves.

Designed for use with an Apple AirTag (not included), which is housed in a protective, 3-part silicone and rubber tubeless valve mount and supplied with a range of tubeless valve bases, so you can ensure an airtight seal is achieved against the rim when installing inside a tubeless tyre.

Also built-in to protect the rim and the AirTag® from high-impacts is a sacrificial stem which compresses and rebounds under extreme loads. Although the holder will absorb impacts, it is secure to the valve with a durable stem mount which allows sealant and air to flow through the valve as usual and will not rattle inside the rim and tyre.

The Apple AirTag itself works by allowing users to track any item from their phone, using the Find My app. Once activated, any item to which the tag is connected appears on the radar within the app, so tracking the bike down is as simple as looking on the map.

According to a study from Direct Line Insurance*, between April and August 2020, UK bicycle thefts exceeded 110k, whilst bike registration specialists 529 Garage** reported that the US experiences over 2m bike thefts every year, that’s one every 30 seconds!  With aggregated data from Worldometers*** suggesting that the number of new bikes produced in 2021 will exceed 150m by year end, there really has never been a more important time for riders to equip themselves with the added security this technology provides.

The Stealth Tubeless Tag Holder retails via Muc-Off distribution network and at muc-off.com £14.99/€19.99/$19.99

A kit which includes a set of black Muc-Off 44mm Tubeless Valves is also available for £34.99/€42.99/$44.99
