Last summer I had the opportunity to participate in a Kickstarter for the TiGr bicycle lock. I received my lock last week and couldn’t be happier.

The TiGr is a long titanium bow and a pocked-sized latch. It’s stronger than a Kryptonite D-Lock and weighs less than a bottle of water.

It looks a bit unwieldy out of the box — as long as a bicycle top tube — but in practice, I’ve found that it’s less visually obtrusive than a D-Lock and even easier to haul around. Shedding the pounds of a Kryptonite (or one of those gawdforsaken chains that so many New Yorkers carry) makes your bike feel like a totally new ride.
