Last fall Otto Design Works kickstarted their coiling band style combination lock into reality. They pulled in more than 7x their crowdfunding target for the lightweight Ottolock. In the time since the lock made it out to backers last spring, they’ve continued to develop & refine the product and have an improved version two lock ready to secure your bike.
Ottolock V2 light combination band-clamp bike lock
The new version of the Ottolock keeps the basics of the original untouched, while improving based on feedback from early backers, their in-house team & a handful of pro athlete test partners. So you still get the lightweight protection of the multiple layers of high temper stainless steel protected by Kevlar fibers that makes the 18mm wide Ottolock band flexible while retaining high resistance to cutting. That makes it more secure than a conventional coiled cable lock. And also packs down small enough to stuff in a saddlebag or jersey pocket for short cafe ride stops.
What’s new in version 2?
