Telematics is a broad term that may be applied to a wide range of vehicle connectivity solutions. Berg Insight’s definition of a telematics system in this report is an automatic system designed for any bicycle that incorporates some form of cellular communications. The adoption of telematics systems in the bicycle industry has picked up speed in the past few years. There are both aftermarket and OEM telematics solutions available on the market. The main use case for bicycle telematics systems is stolen vehicle tracking and theft prevention. Bicycle theft is a growing concern and millions of bicycles are stolen every year in Europe and North America. Bicycle OEMs also offer services such as vehicle diagnostics and maintenance services, roadside assistance services, connected navigation, crash detection services as well as over-the-air updates. In the aftermarket segment, stolen vehicle tracking services are increasingly common.
