Simple Security

The Knog Scout is a great device. I keep my bike locked if I leave it while out for a ride but want to know if anyone tampers with it. It’s been reliable over a few years now. I like how a USB C plug can be used to charge the Scout when installed under my bottle cage. 5 stars.

Inconvenient Charging kills it

The button seems a bit iffy when disarming but otherwise it works really well. The issue comes with charging. The battery life is terrible, especially considering that I haven’t found a USBC battery that will stay connected to charge it. If you don’t have access to a plug where you store your bike, you’ll have to uninstall the alarm to charge it then reinstall it, which is a quick process but tedious considering how often it has to be charged.

Great - will buy another

There are some glitches reported but I haven’t had any issues. Update your iOS, and it should work fine. Battery life good. Tracker works like AirTag. Don’t care too much for the real-time handset alert, as Bluetooth range for any phone is not far. So that function is ok but not necessary. The 2 main features (tracker and alarm) do the job really well. It weighs hardly anything. Charge lasts 6 months. It’s a great gadget. I have 12 bikes. Some with AirTags. Eventually I will have Knog alarm/trackers on all of them. Keep up the momentum, team Knog - it’s a fabulous product. Thank you.

MOTION SENSITIVE ALARM

A loud 85 dB alarm is triggered if your bike gets moved. Easy to turn on / off within the Knog app.

TRACK IT EVERYWHERE

LONG BATTERY LIFE

The battery can last 2 to 6 months (pending usage) between charges, and notifications let you know when its running low.

DISCREET + SECURE

Scout Bike mounts under your bottle cage using our proprietary tamper proof security screws. If you prefer to use Scout as a visual deterrent, you can use the supplied neon silicone cover.

RUGGED

Scout Bike is water resistant and dust proof (IP66), so it can handle any type of riding and weather conditions.

'Scout Bike provides unparalleled security for your prized possession.'

A Bike Alarm & Finder Like No Other

For improved security and recovery

Arming Scout Is Quick & Easy

Arming or disarming the Scout alarm can be achieved in two ways; via the button on the side of the device when the connected iPhone is in close proximity (< 1.5 m) or via the Knog app when the device is within Bluetooth range.

Mounting & Securing

For overt protection use the neon yellow silicone cover provided. For more discreet security, attach Scout to the bike via the bottle cage mounts using the supplied tamper-proof security screws without the cover.

Dual Function LEDs

Scout feature’s dual function LEDs that show at a glance if the Scout is alarmed. The same LEDs display the charge status of the battery.

Mounting With A Bottle Cage

Scout’s extremely low profile and compact design allows for it to be neatly bolted and hidden underneath a bottle cage. This is a great way to keep Scout hidden.
