The TM-B features a full suite of connectivity features that makes it feels more like smart tech than a bicycle.
LTE
TM-B can connect from anywhere using an established, robust cellular band. With a Connect+ subscription, linking up with the IoT means OTA updates anywhere, navigation features, and finding out your bike’s GPS coordinates in seconds.
Results may vary, but LTE is generally available nationwide where even 5G is missing.
Will I need a Connect+ subscription to use LTE features?
We want everyone to experience the full connectivity experience as we intended it, so we’re including Connect+ with each TM-B for at least 1 year, and it will be active out-of-the-box.
After that trial period, there will be a yearly or monthly fee to keep using the LTE security features of Connect+.
GPS
Using the latest GPS spec, you can pinpoint your TM-B’s position on the map with surprising accuracy, updated regularly. Whether you’re making sure it’s right where you left it, or just forgot where you parked, GPS will get you reunited with your ride.
WiFi
The TM-B has wifi on board, if you happen to have a garage to use it with. Right now, updates happen via LTE, but there will be WiFi features down the line.
Bluetooth®
TM-B uses the latest Bluetooth® spec to connect to your smartphone and to audio devices like the Alpha Wave helmet. Pairing your phone with your TM-B allows you to manage ownership, adjust settings, see critical information, and send navigation directions to the Portal.
There’s also a little magic trick Bluetooth® can do: unlock and lock your TM-B simply by walking up to the bike or walking away from it. Bluetooth® is able to sense how far you are away from your ride, so no one can hop on while you’re not looking. Simply park and enjoy your surroundings.
