The faster you cycle, the uglier you can fall. And the older you are, the easier it is to break something. You wouldn't want to think that you or, for example, one of your parents could fall badly during a nice bike ride and not be able to call for help. In such a situation, the Bypoint comes in handy.
If this device registers a fall, it can contact three preset contacts. This happens if the cyclist himself does not press a button - the only button - on the device after the fall. The Bypoint then sends a text message with its GPS data. If the contacts are not around to look, they can relay the exact location to emergency services. Especially for the elderly, having help on site within the hour is critical.
Mounting the Bypoint is simple, and the device indicates in several ways when it needs to be charged. It comes with a 2-meter-long charging cord, and if there is no outlet nearby, the device can also be charged by means of a power bank attached to the bicycle.
