ABSTRACT:
[An anti-theft locking system for bicycles or other portable items utilizes a high strength hollow flexible tether which may be looped around the stationary object and plugged into a locking receiver or socket on the bicycle or, alternately, may be plugged directly into a locking opening provided in a hollow post such as a parking meter post. The tether has retractable spring-urged latches operated by an internal wire controlled by a key-locking mechanism fixed on the cycle or other portable article.]
A locking means for a bicycle or the like consists of a locking unit permanently attached to a frame member of the bicycle. A flexible tether has an end permanently attached to the locking unit and has a plug-in lock element on its free end adapted to enter a receiver on the locking unit after being looped around an anchoring object.
