I doubt the Tile network is big enough to be useful. Note the range (to be picked up by a phone) is fairly short too.

If you have a close friend with an iPhone, you could connect the Airtag to their phone.

The real failure, of course, was the bike being stolen in the first place. The likelihood that a bike will be detected might be 5% or much, much less.

I think all of them are too large for anything except under the seat. Note that they likely don't work surrounded by metal.
