OTTOLOCK, a leader in lightweight security for bikes and outdoor gear, has unveiled the SIDEKICK Folding Lock, a versatile new addition to its product lineup.
With 5mm-thick, hardened-steel links and a design built for portability, the SIDEKICK Folding Lock provides strong protection while remaining compact and easy to carry.
At a competitive price of $79.00, this lock addresses the needs of the growing micromobility market, particularly e-bike riders, while offering flexibility for traditional bicycles.
Portability and Durability Combined
The SIDEKICK Folding Lock combines durability and convenience. It weighs only 2.2 lbs (1 kg) yet delivers robust security.
Built with strength in mind, the lock’s 5mm hardened steel links are designed to withstand impact and tampering, ensuring your bike stays secure.
The folding mechanism allows the lock to collapse into a compact size of just 7.5 inches long, 2 inches wide, and 2.25 inches high. It fits easily into bags or mounted on the bike with an included bike mount.
This portability is key for cyclists who need a lock that doesn’t weigh them down but still offers protection.
Its flexible, shape-adjustable design also fits a wide range of bike frames, from modern e-bikes to standard bicycles, with a maximum interior diameter of 11 inches (28 cm).
Expanding OTTOLOCK’s Mobile Security Solutions
OTTOLOCK founder and CEO Jake VanderZanden expressed the company’s vision for meeting the needs of an evolving cycling community.
“Micromobility is a major growth market, and we expect mobile security needs to expand to match it,” said the OTTOLOCK CEO.
The SIDEKICK Folding Lock hits the sweet spot of toughness, versatility, and price, completing our line of bike security products.”
This new innovation joins OTTOLOCK’s security suite, including Cinch Lock models and Sidekick U-Locks, offering a range of options for cyclists of all types.
