Texlock, the Leipzig-based manufacturer renowned for its innovative textile bicycle locks, is celebrating a significant milestone in 2026: its 10th anniversary. To commemorate this achievement, Texlock has unveiled a special edition lock that pays homage to the Bauhaus Dessau’s centenary. This collaboration seamlessly merges modern cycling security with the timeless design principles of the Bauhaus movement.
A Fusion of Design and Functionality
The Bauhaus Anniversary Edition embodies the essence of the Bauhaus philosophy, where form and function are harmoniously integrated. The lock features a geometric woven structure in the iconic primary colors of blue, red, and yellow, set against a dominant black base. This design not only reflects the Bauhaus aesthetic but also ensures high visibility and style. A specially developed black label at the end of the cable commemorates both anniversaries: 10 years of Texlock and 100 years of Bauhaus Dessau. (velomotion.net)
Advanced Security with HybridSecure™ Technology
True to Texlock’s commitment to safety, the Bauhaus Anniversary Edition incorporates the patented HybridSecure™ technology. This multi-layered textile fiber-steel core construction offers robust protection against cutting, sawing, and fire. The lock’s textile surface is designed to be soft and flexible, providing ease of use while safeguarding the bicycle’s paintwork from scratches. (tex-lock.com)
