About RideTag

RideTag exists to solve one problem:

You shouldn't have to trust a stranger when buying a bike.

The insight

Theft is not a recovery problem.
It's a resale liquidity problem.

As long as buyers can't distinguish a clean bike from a risky one, the market stays broken. Stolen bikes get resold because no one can check them. Honest sellers can't prove they're honest.

The solution

RideTag introduces a simple rule:

Only the last accountable holder can pass a bike forward — and that handover is visible.

This creates a verifiable chain of custody that anyone can check, without revealing personal details.

What this creates

  • Scarcity of authority

    Only verified holders can initiate transfers. You can't claim what isn't yours.

  • Forward-only transfers

    History can't be rewritten. No retroactive certification. What happened, happened.

  • Honest gaps instead of fake certainty

    If a handover wasn't recorded, it shows. Gaps are visible — that's a feature, not a bug.

Privacy & neutrality

  • RideTag is independent — shows only RideTag-recorded events
  • No personal data is ever shown publicly
  • Brand- and marketplace-agnostic by design
  • You control what's visible; verification works without exposing identity
