VengeCycle: GPS-activated explosive in the bike's handlebars, handled by an app

Has to be fake as this very likely falls under booby trapping laws which are illegal in most if not all states.

Not to mention a dozen perfectly legal or exigent reasons which might require a civil servant(LEO, fire fighter, etc...) to move your bike who could be harmed, maimed or killed.

If this is not a joke then it's a massive failure of morals. How will they feel when the thief steals a bike for their 5 year old daughter?

“And (as for) the male thief and the female thief, cut off (from the wrist joint) their (right) hands as a recompense for that which they committed, a punishment by way of example from Allaah. And Allaah is All Powerful, All Wise” [al-Maa’idah 5:38]

Enough said.

What's to stop a thief buying a VengeCycle kit, that includes the 7-star key, and then using that to dispose of the explosives on other people's bikes?

I haven't read a story in quite some time that had me checking if it was the beginning of April so much as this one.

So basically pipe-bombs strapped to handlebars? Should go over well with Homeland Security.

This seems like a massive liability. I hope this is a joke.
