ABSTRACT:
A cable lock and complementary bracket for securely attaching the cable lock to a bicycle frame when not in use. The bracket has an attachment portion that mounts the bracket to a frame strut and a seat with a cavity into which the lock head of the cable lock fits. The cavity is funnel shaped to limit movement between the lock head and bracket. An arm on the bracket includes a tongue that extends into a groove in the lock head to securely retain the lock head in the bracket. The tongue is biased into the groove and is manually removable by bending the arm to allow removal of the lock head from the bracket.
