Tempo is a theft protection program for bike owners that helps members prevent bike theft and replace their bike if it's stolen. We are no longer accepting new members. Current members can login above.

– and probably what you need, too."

Who's talking about Tempo?

How Tempo security badges work.

Tempo Theft Protection includes a QR code badge, and a patented UV badge. They each help deter thieves and get your stolen bike returned to you.

When someone scans the QR badge on your bike, it opens your bike’s unique web page.

Your bike’s page informs anyone (including thieves) that your bike is protected, and allows people to contact Tempo to share information about the bike.

If you have reported your bike stolen to Tempo, your bike’s page changes to notify people and ask for their help getting the bike back.

The UV badge has a unique ID and a phone number someone can call if they find your bike.

Even if the badge is removed, the ID and phone number remain on the bike, but are invisible to the naked eye, using patented anti-theft UV technology found on millions of cars, but available for bikes only through Tempo.

Law enforcement officers carry a UV light to check for IDs on suspected stolen goods. They can call the number to get your bike back to you.

* Important details: If your bike is stolen, Tempo will help you file a claim for the original retail price of the bike, with no deductible or depreciation, and a maximum benefit of $2500. Badges can only be applied to bikes purchased within 60 days of purchasing Theft Protection. A 45 day stolen bike recovery period applies before claims are paid. Tempo's partner, VAS, administers and pays approved claims. Theft protection is not available in the State of New York. Additional terms & conditions apply.
