Loclock – an award-winning bike rack made of recycled polyethylene and UHPC concrete

Loclock was designed by the design studio "The Bicycle Laboratory" (Alex Fernández Camps). This urban bike rack embodies sustainable mobility: durability, circular economy and safety. Its closed-loop shape allows bikes to be locked from both sides. The core of the rack is ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) reinforced with 12 mm ribbed steel, encased in a recycled polyethylene shell with UV protection. The polyethylene is coloured throughout its mass, so the colour is not just a surface coat of paint, and the shell protects both the concrete and the bike frame. The shell is rotationally moulded in one piece, without seams or welds, and its surface is textured and non-porous. The structure is fully vandal-resistant, the design is registered and protected with the European Union Intellectual Property Office, and the rack itself has won an award for innovation in street furniture.

Options

  • Colour – shades from the manufacturer's colour palette (e.g. white, red, lime green).
  • Shell – recycled polyethylene (recycled content 50–100% depending on colour; slight variations in shade may be visible on the surface) or, to order, virgin polyethylene.

Tip

Several Loclock racks in different colours in a row create a playful accent. If you need a rack with three locking points that is also suitable for e-bikes, choose the larger Superlock.

How do I choose a bike rack?

First decide how many bikes need to be parked and where the rack will stand – outdoors on paving or indoors against a wall. Then consider whether it is important to lock the bike frame: U-shaped hoops are best for this. Finally, choose the material and colour to suit the surroundings.

How many bike spaces do I need?

Calculate based on peak season, when there are the most bikes, and leave some spare capacity. Some racks are made with different numbers of spaces or are modular, so spaces can be added later. Double-sided racks allow bikes to be parked on both sides and save space.

How is a bike rack fixed?

Most racks are bolted into firm paving with anchors, and some models can be set in concrete. Wall-mounted holders are fixed to the wall with anchors. For many models, anchors are included – this is stated in the product's technical data.

Are there racks for wide tyres and e-bikes?

Yes. In this category you will find racks and wall-mounted holders designed for wider tyres and heavier bikes, as well as an e-bike station with a charging socket. The permitted tyre width or wheel gap for each model is stated in the product description. Compare it with your bike's tyres before buying.

Galvanised or stainless steel – which should I choose?

Hot-dip galvanised and powder-coated steel is corrosion-resistant and lets you choose a colour. Stainless steel is unpainted, keeps its shiny look for a long time and suits prestigious locations. Both options are suitable for year-round outdoor use.

How do I protect a bike from theft and scratches?

It is safest to lock the bike by the frame, not just the wheel – U-shaped hoops and similar racks are designed for this. Models with protective rubber keep the bike's paintwork free of scratches. Place the rack in a clearly visible and well-lit location.

When should I choose a wall-mounted bike holder?

Wall-mounted holders come in handy in bike rooms, garages and basements, where floor space is limited. A bike hung vertically takes up less space, and swivelling holders allow bikes to be placed closer together. Note the minimum room height stated in the description.
