I plan on riding bike for often and while I have invest and will continue to invest in the typical security measures (D lock, wheel lock, etc.). However, in the extreme case that it should get stolen I want a way to track it down. I was thinking about getting a Tile tracking and place it within the frame of my bike but there's a better way please suggest it. Thanks in advance!

My area has low crime, so a ulock is an order of magnitude better than the micro-cable locks most people use. I also lock my bike to cart returns at stores if the bike rack is insecure.

So yeah, just be a little more secure than the bike next to you and you're probably good. Thieves are lazy.
