Tiny tag that does the job!
I have had several of these devices. Easily hidden in the bike frame, embedded in a blob of adhesive (I use a two-part epoxy adhesive). Fortunately I have never had to use the tag, but it is comforting to know that it is there.

Immobitag micro-chip for bicycles
Well, it is very small and fairly easy to fit (glue) inside the frame. However, its an item that you hope you never have to use. Hopefully the label supplied with the chip will deter would-be thieves.

Very easy
The rfid tag is about 10mm long and 2mm wide. It was really easy to add a blob of superglue and push/throw it through one of the water bottle bolt holes into my carbon frame. I heard it land. Shook the bike a bit but heard no rattling - which is good as it could potentially drop into the bottom bracket. After an hour picked the bike up and all is good. Only a couple of issues. 1 I have no idea if it works. 2 there are 2 different I’d codes on stickers in the pack. It’s not entirely clear which one is the actual Id. Maybe I’ll drop by the local vet and see if they can pick it up on their pet scan !
