Finding that you've left your lock at home or forgotten it at the office can quickly render you panicked when it's time to lock your ride up at your location, but BluLocks Bicycles look to eliminate this headache of a problem by embedding the lock into the construction of the bike itself. Working by having the lock come out of the frame and wrap easily around the front tire and the structure you're locking your ride to, BluLocks Bicycles are designed for performance and aren't just about the embedded lock feature (although this clearly one of the most awesome features).
Currently funding on Indiegogo, BluLocks Bicycles are estimated to be available for purchase in February of next year.
