Description(English) | Our product is called Litelok. Litelok is the worlds first lightweight, flexible and super secure Litelok. The issue with most bike locks is that while bikes are getting lighter and lighter, secure locks are getting heavier and heavier. That’s because it’s the thickness of the metal chains and tubes that provides the additional security, however it also makes them cumbersome, heavy & impractical. Harnessing the unique security properties of multiple innovative, lightweight materials we created a composite strap called Boaflexicore®. Each layer provides additional security, meaning it can withstand sustained attack to the highest level (for over 5 minutes) from tools like cable cutters, bolt croppers and hacksaws. Litelok weighs less than 1 kilogram (2.2 lbs) and unlike D and U locks, the strap is flexible and easy to secure around fixed objects. Litelok also has a patented inline lock, which has been developed with a well-known UK manufacturer, that snaps securely shut without the need for a key. We decided to launch our product on the crowdfunding site Kickstarter. Looking for £20,000, we reached our goal in just over twelve hours and finished with funding of £232,078. |
