Folding Bike Lock DUNLOP 85 cm — compact portable bicycle security lock

DUNLOP Folding Bike Lock 85 cm is a compact, portable bicycle security lock designed to secure frames and wheels when parked. The 85 cm folding design offers a balance between reach and stowage volume, allowing the lock to bend around posts, bike racks and other fixed objects while remaining small enough to carry on the frame or in a bag. The lock provides mechanical protection for everyday urban use, commuting and short-term parking situations.

Advantages

The folding mechanism combines rigidity with compact storage, reducing the bulk compared with long rigid locks. Hardened steel links resist cutting and offer stable protection for the frame and wheel attachments. The compact length and articulated joints make it easy to wrap the lock around various anchor points without excessive weight. A weather-resistant coating helps protect the metal surface from corrosion and preserves functionality in changing conditions.

Suitable for

• Securing commuter bicycles during short stops in urban environments
• Locking frames and wheels to public bike racks or street posts
• Portable protection for folding or compact bikes carried in bags or on frames

Key specifications

• Folded length: compact 85 cm total reach when unfolded
• Construction: articulated hardened steel links for improved cut resistance
• Finish: protective weather-resistant coating on metal components
• Lock type: mechanical cylinder locking mechanism with key access
• Weight: designed for a balance between portability and security

How to use

To use the folding lock, unfold the articulated links and encircle the bicycle frame and a fixed anchor point such as a bike rack or post. Ensure the lock passes through the frame triangle and, if possible, one of the wheels to reduce the risk of wheel theft. Align the link ends and insert the locking pin into the cylinder, then turn the key to engage the lock. When finished, fold the sections together and secure the lock to the frame or store it in a bag for transport.

Usage recommendations

For everyday urban use, attach the lock to the frame when riding to keep it accessible. Choose well-lit, busy locations and combine the folding lock with additional security for prolonged parking or higher-risk areas. Regularly lubricate the cylinder and keep the protective coating clean to maintain reliable operation.
