We are delighted to announce that our folding U-lock, "BENLOCK," has been awarded the prestigious "iF DESIGN AWARD 2023" in the "Product - Bicycles" category.
<BENLOCK Folding U-lock>
Traditional U-locks have been known for their high-security features, but they often come with the drawback of being bulky and difficult to transport or store when not in use, maintaining their U-shape.
Addressing this challenge, BENLOCK offers a solution that combines the convenience of portability with the security benefits of a U-lock. Its innovative folding design allows for easy handling and compact storage.
Furthermore, BENLOCK comes with a dedicated case that discreetly conceals the smart tag, which can be attached to the bicycle frame, providing additional functionality and convenience.
