Have you ever...

Worried about your bicycle getting stolen?
 

Felt burdened by carrying heavy lock(s) with you?
 

Hated taking out 1+ locks to lock up your bike?

Forgotten your bike lock or key?
 

Parked your bike in an area not intended for bike parking because it felt safer?
 

Felt overwhelmed by various security tips?

We know how you feel. We worry about where to leave our bikes and are frustrated by cumbersome locking methods, too.

Here is how you'd park with our smart rack

3 Easy steps to lock your bike

1. Lift arm(s)

Lift up the right arm and possibly the left so that they are parallel and allow a straight path through the rear triangle of your bicycle. This prepares for locking both the frame the rear wheel.

2. Slide the rear bar across

Push the bar straight across fully until it is fully inserted into the left arm's receptacle.

Like many, our founder, Jianhan, started out knowing nothing about bicycle security except to lock it up when parking outside his residence. Once, he forgot to bring the key for his U-lock with him right after a snowstorm. This left him in an excruciating dilemma of having to choose between keeping the nice bike he purchased just a few months ago for a significant sum or attending that conference.

After seeing many bikes with missing parts in the San Francisco Bay Area, he learned more about bike security. Despite spending hundreds of hours of research, trials, and testing the best ways to lock his bike, he has found it difficult and inconvenient to continually do so at most bike racks. Locking car doors isn't this difficult. Why should it be for bikes?

CycleSCP was started to raise the standard of bicycle parking to help people access more places by bicycle safely and conveniently and increase the traffic share of bicycles in North America to 10%+ and beyond.​
