Tough and Lightweight - A Versatile Security Solution For Two Wheels

PORTLAND, Ore. – October 22, 2024 /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – OTTOLOCK, designers and makers of lightweight, category-creating cinch locks for bike and outdoor security, introduces the SIDEKICK Folding Lock.

The versatile SIDEKICK Folding Lock offers superior security, thanks to its 5mm-thick, hardened-steel links in a lightweight, portable design. The virtually limitless shape options of the link design work especially well with the huge variety of e-bike frame designs, but it’s equally suitable for locking any bike. All of these great benefits come at a competitive price of $79.00.

“Micromobility is a major growth market, and we expect mobile security needs will expand to match it,” said OTTOLOCK founder and CEO, Jake VanderZanden. “To that end, OTTOLOCK has positioned the SIDEKICK Folding Lock right in the sweet spot of toughness, versatility and price. It’s an ideal addition to our full suite of bike and outdoor-equipment locks.”

Features:

• Shape-adjustable to fit wide range of bikes and e-bikes
• Super portable: 2.2 lbs (1kg) and folds down to 7.5” L x 2” W x 2.25” H
• Maximum interior diameter opening of 11 inches (28 cm)
