LINKA 這款智慧車所造型看起來蠻好得，有興趣的朋友還有影片介紹呦~~

Rather than tether your bike to an existing stationary object, LINKA uses a 9mm hardened square steel ring to immobilize your bike with the push of a button (you can also connect LINKA to a chain or existing U-lock as well). If a potential thief attempts to run off with your bike, there’s a built-in accelerometer that sounds a 100 dB siren along with sending a tamper alert to your phone. The lock wirelessly works with your smartphone, unlocking automatically as you approach your bike. And if you decide not to bring your phone along (or have a dead battery), there’s also the option to use a 4-digit pass code to gain instant access. [Purchase]

LITELOK 發表 新的自行車鎖輕於1公斤，容易攜帶，而且能足以承受五分多鐘的斷線鉗或鋼鋸得持續攻擊，來看看影片吧!

Bike theft is a huge problem around the world. Nowadays, half the money you spend on a fast and lightweight bike is undone by the half-ton of metal you need to carry around in order to secure it, and there have been few developments to counter the wisdom that heavier = harder to steal.

Determined to reverse that trend, UK-based startup LITELOK are in the final stages of a Kickstarter campaign to bring a whole new kind of bike lock to the marketplace. Bendy and flexible enough to wrap in a circle, lighter than 1 kg and strong enough to withstand over five minutes of sustained attack with bolt cutters or a hacksaw (earning it the highest industry security rating), the LITELOK promises a lot. And, with 24 days to go until their funding deadline and five times their goal raised, it seems a lot of people are inclined to believe it. It certainly looks impressive, with its slick, click-lock closure, choice of three colorways and option to extend in length by attaching additional units end-to-end.

To see the full presentation, watch the video below. You can order your own LITELOK via Kickstarter, with an estimated shipment in August this year.

這個鎖小偷因該偷不走了吧!!!

好美的鎖耶~~

This is not the first time nor the last you’ll find a leather wrapped U-style lock… German creative team, Deutsche & Japaner, offer up their “A Darling Accessor” bicycle u-lock with matching leather belt and pendant – all made from fine Italian calf leather. Urban commuters looking for a more luxe side of bicycle locking should consider this look. Again, various shops and players on etsy should offer similar work.

VIA.

Yakun Zhang, Jason Liu and Danwei Ye have collaborated on this 2012 Design Talents winner. It’s a pretty obvious idea that daily riders might come to find invaluable. Based on the modern car key – point – bleep – flash. At the press of a button your bike lock will alert you to its whereabouts with sound and light. Useful if you keep yours in a busy bike rack or for those nightriders looking to identify their frame quickly.(YD)
