Do we get Gear Guard Cable with R1T?

[gvardan]

I picked up my R1T about a month ago, and I'm looking to buy a gear guard cable for my bikes. As I'm doing the research, it seems like I should have received a gear guard cable with the truck itself, and the one they sell is an extended gear guard cable. Can someone confirm before I reach Rivian.

Confirmed. Mine came with one.

Yes, it came in the net in the frunk.

In the frunk and in the mesh pouch. If not there, check bottom compartment where mobile charger is.

Thanks everyone for confirming, I checked the net in the Frunk and the bottom compartment. It's not there... I'll reach out to Rivian.

I got the short version with the R1T, and bought the long version for bikes from the Gear store.

Opal's GG Cable was in the mesh pouch in the front of the frunk along with the front license plate holder.

Same. The long one is nice, especially when you’re carrying multiple bikes or want to route through both wheels, etc.

My R1S came with a GG cable

In my opinion the whole gear guard cable is a miss from Rivian... I seem to remember that early info indicated there would be an electronic link in the gear guard cable that if it were ever cut/broken then the alarm and gear guard would engage... this is not the case today. Their cable is just another version of any other cable that you can utilize that is easily cut by an intentional thief. I was expecting this to be tied into the alarm system.

I seem to remember hearing that too. The tailgate also folded to 180 degrees early on.

Is it not connected to the alarm? Low current runs through it to complete a circuit and once cut/breaks the circuit it alarms?

Nope.
