The textile-based tex-lock promises to be both more resilient and lighter than conventional bike locks.
Created by a team of German designers, the tex-lock consists of five different materials braided together to provide different sorts of protection: saw resistance, cut resistance, and fire resistance, and as well as waterproofing and dirt repelling. The unique makeup of the tex-lock also makes it lighter and more flexible, so it is easier to use.
In the future, the team may add conductive fibers to the lock that would trigger an alarm if the device is being tampered with.
