Abstract: A security system for use with bicycles. The security system includes a tube having two tube halves attached to the down tube of a bicycle and includes two movable arms adapted to releasably hold onto an existing structure. An electromagnet is also attached to the tube for releasably attaching to metallic structures. The two arms and electromagnet can be controlled using a remote control fob or cell phone. A surface detection sensor attached to the handlebars of the bicycle is also employed to locate the bicycle in the event of theft.

Abstract: The present invention is a security system for use with an ordinary bicycle. The Bicycle Security System of the present invention allows users: to leave their bicycle anywhere without the need to be tethered to an existing stationary support, eliminates the use of chaining systems that are easily cut off, comes equipped with a security system which offers a user peace of mind, and is easily locked and unlocked with a fob-lock system. The present invention employs a key-fob lock system which actuates a locking mechanism located on the down tube of a bicycle. A surface detection sensor attached to the handlebars of the bicycle is also employed to locate the bicycle in the event of theft.
