A newcomer that got its start securing ATMs for banks is trying to change that. There\u2019s nothing wholly unique about the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmdlocks.com\/products\/tmd-chain-lock\">TMD Chain Lock<\/a>, but the combination of materials, performance, and insurance-friendly ART-2 certification makes it worth considering.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">TMD\u2019s first bicycle lock combines a Bluetooth proximity sensor and motion alarm with a slender core of hardened steel chain wrapped in a soft and lightweight sleeve of high performance Dyneema and Kevlar fibers. That makes this lock tough, yet flexible enough to conveniently wrap around your seat post when cycling. TMD also designed the keyless lock to be shareable with friends and family, and capable of withstanding shock, rain, dust, and extreme temperatures. That makes it highly suited to city bikes parked outside and ridden all year long.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">I like the TMD Chain Lock I\u2019ve been testing, but spending \u20ac249 (about $283) on something that typically costs far less is a big ask.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac1 _1xorkac0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div class=\"gc3ws21\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--scorecard gc3ws25 gc3ws24\" data-product-filter id=\"product-card-dmcyOnByb2R1Y3Q6OTU3NjM0\">\n<div class=\"gc3ws2k\"><a class=\"gc3ws2g gc3ws2c\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tmdlocks.com\/products\/tmd-chain-lock?variant=55654846103877\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt data-chromatic=\"ignore\" loading=\"lazy\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"i7ks070\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent;background-size:cover;background-position:50% 50%;background-repeat:no-repeat;filter: url(%23b);)\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/IMG_1855.jpeg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=12.496040544821%2C0%2C75.007918910358%2C100&amp;w=2400\"><\/a><a class=\"gc3ws2j gc3ws2d\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tmdlocks.com\/products\/tmd-chain-lock?variant=55654846103877\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt data-chromatic=\"ignore\" loading=\"lazy\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"i7ks070\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent;background-size:cover;background-position:50% 50%;background-repeat:no-repeat;filter: url(%23b);)\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/IMG_1855.jpeg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0%2C5.5602477477478%2C100%2C88.879504504504&amp;w=2400\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"xhcq400\">\n<p class=\"xhcq401\">6<\/p>\n<p class=\"xhcq402\">Verge Score<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gc3ws29\">\n<div class=\"gc3ws2a gc3ws2b\">\n<h3 class=\"gc3ws2l\"><a class=\"gc3ws2y\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tmdlocks.com\/products\/tmd-chain-lock?variant=55654846103877\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">TMD Chain Lock<\/a><\/h3>\n<div class=\"gc3ws2q\"><span class=\"gc3ws2t\">$<!-- -->280<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gc3ws2r\"><span class=\"gc3ws2s\">$<!-- -->280<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"xhcq405 _19wv7tc1\">\n<div class=\"xhcq406\">\n<h4 class=\"xhcq408\">The Good<\/h4>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup xhcq409\">\n<ul>\n<li>Strong yet flexible lock won\u2019t scratch bike<\/li>\n<li>Digital key can be shared with friends and family<\/li>\n<li>Convenient if you lock your bike several times a day<\/li>\n<li>ART-2 certified for insurance<\/li>\n<li>Loud enough alarm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"xhcq407\">\n<h4 class=\"xhcq408\">The Bad<\/h4>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup xhcq409\">\n<ul>\n<li>Very expensive<\/li>\n<li>Lacks USB-C charging<\/li>\n<li>Annoying operating sounds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gc3ws2w\"><a class=\"gc3ws2x\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tmdlocks.com\/products\/tmd-chain-lock?variant=55654846103877\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">$280 at TMD<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"xhcq403\"><a class=\"xhcq404\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/pages\/how-we-rate\">How we rate and review products<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">The chasm separating ATM security from bike security isn\u2019t as wide as it might seem. TMD developed a centralized, keyless system for banks to authorize access to its ATMs for service, replacing the physical master keys that created a massive security risk whenever they were lost or stolen. It\u2019s this same keyless knowhow that TMD now brings to the Bluetooth bike lock.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">There are many advantages to turning phones into digital keys, especially in bike-centric societies like the Netherlands, which TMD calls home. For example, I could ride to the train station and have an authorized friend pick the bike up later. And the keyless convenience quickly adds up for those of us that use our bikes to commute to work, pick up the kids from daycare and football, run errands, and shop for groceries. In my home city of Amsterdam, it\u2019s not unusual to grab my keys more than a dozen times a day to lock and unlock my bike.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">I tested the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmdlocks.com\/products\/tmd-chain-lock?variant=55654846103877\">TMD Bike Lock<\/a> in the 110cm (about 3.5 feet) length with an iPhone 15 Pro running the latest version of iOS. Generally \u2014 I\u2019d say 19 out of every 20 attempts \u2014 the TMD Chain Lock immediately recognized my approach, allowing me to seamlessly unlock it with a push on the lock\u2019s only button. When I did have to wait, it took no more than a second for the button to flash blue, indicating the lock had detected my nearby phone in a pocket or bag. Pretty good, but that convenience comes with some tradeoffs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac3 _1xorkac0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div id=\":R6gbcprar96:\" class=\"duet--article--image-gallery-four-up _1044qizj\">\n<div class=\"_1pegheu6\">\n<div class=\"_1pegheu7\">\n<div class>\n<div class>\n<div style=\"background-image:none\" class=\"duet--media--content-warning _1k8kvzd0\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--image-gallery-image _1pegheu0 _1044qizx\"><a class=\"_1pegheu1\" href=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/IMG_1709.jpeg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0,5.5555555555556,100,88.888888888889\" data-pswp-height=\"3808\" data-pswp-width=\"5712\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt data-chromatic=\"ignore\" loading=\"lazy\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"i7ks070\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent;background-size:cover;background-position:50% 50%;background-repeat:no-repeat;filter: url(%23b);)\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/IMG_1709.jpeg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0%2C5.5555555555556%2C100%2C88.888888888889&amp;w=2400\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--media--caption _77sxmb0\"><figcaption class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _19wv7tc2 _77sxmba\"><em>The bike sat unlocked across the street since it was still within Bluetooth range of my phone at this cafe.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"_1pegheu9\">\n<div class>\n<div class>\n<div style=\"background-image:none\" class=\"duet--media--content-warning _1k8kvzd0\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--image-gallery-image _1pegheu0 _1044qizx\"><a class=\"_1pegheu1\" href=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/IMG_1716.jpeg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0,5.5555555555556,100,88.888888888889\" data-pswp-height=\"3808\" data-pswp-width=\"5712\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt data-chromatic=\"ignore\" loading=\"lazy\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"i7ks070\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent;background-size:cover;background-position:50% 50%;background-repeat:no-repeat;filter: url(%23b);)\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/IMG_1716.jpeg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0%2C5.5555555555556%2C100%2C88.888888888889&amp;w=2400\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--media--caption _77sxmb0\"><figcaption class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _19wv7tc2 _77sxmba\"><em>My bike, parked outside this window, would automatically unlock whenever I cooked.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"_1pegheu6\">\n<div class=\"_1pegheu8 _1pegheu7\">\n<div class>\n<div class>\n<div style=\"background-image:none\" class=\"duet--media--content-warning _1k8kvzd0\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--image-gallery-image _1pegheu0 _1044qizx\"><a class=\"_1pegheu1\" href=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/IMG_1700.jpeg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0,5.5555555555556,100,88.888888888889\" data-pswp-height=\"2688\" data-pswp-width=\"4032\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt data-chromatic=\"ignore\" loading=\"lazy\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"i7ks070\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent;background-size:cover;background-position:50% 50%;background-repeat:no-repeat;filter: url(%23b);)\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/IMG_1700.jpeg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0%2C5.5555555555556%2C100%2C88.888888888889&amp;w=2400\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--media--caption _77sxmb0\"><figcaption class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _19wv7tc2 _77sxmba\"><em>Charging the lock off my laptop.

I had the same issue when cooking in my kitchen with the bike parked just outside the window, as I normally do. In both cases, I either had to move the bike or turn off my phone\u2019s Bluetooth radio. And since my phone is now my bike key, if it\u2019s stolen, my much more expensive e-bike is vulnerable as well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">TMD says its Chain Lock is \u201cimmune to conventional drilling and picking,\u201d but all bike locks can be defeated by a determined thief. The Chain Lock has earned an ART-2 certification issued by an independent Dutch organization that tests and certifies bike locks on a scale from one to five. Most Dutch insurance companies require ART-2 at a minimum to validate policies on expensive e-bikes and cargo bikes. It\u2019s akin to something like a Sold Secure Silver or Gold rating in the UK, a 2 Roues in France, and VdS approval in Germany. (The US and Canada do not have a single, centralized, independent testing body that dictates insurance requirements for bicycles.) Should your bike be stolen, you can produce a digital log file for the insurance company from within the TMD app as official proof that your bike was locked.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">To deter theft, the lock also features an integrated motion alarm that can be armed and disarmed in the app or with a double press of the lock\u2019s button. At 100dB it\u2019s less shrill than I expected, but it does the job when it senses the lock being jostled. It shuts off automatically after about 10 seconds of inactivity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac2 _1xorkac0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-pullquote c39lj10\">\n<div class=\"c39lj11\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup c39lj12 _19wv7tc9\">TMD tells me that a future software update will let you disable these sounds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">The lock is rather noisy in day-to-day usage. Unlocking it is accompanied by a loud tone that hits 75dB when measured at a distance of one meter. I hate that it draws attention to me and my expensive e-bike. Just flash green and unlock \u2014 that\u2019s more than enough. TMD tells me that a future software update will let you disable these sounds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">TMD claims the lock\u2019s battery will last up to nine months on a single charge. However, my test unit has already dropped 16 percent after a week of testing, suggesting a lifespan closer to six or seven weeks. But that\u2019s likely because I store my bikes inside my house when not in use, so the lock\u2019s Bluetooth radio is constantly being lit up by my phone\u2019s proximity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">To prevent water and dust ingress and leave more room for the battery and speaker, TMD says it opted for a shallow magnetic pin connector \u2013 not USB-C \u2013 to charge the Chain Lock. That\u2019s a shame because plenty of phones have USB-C ports and offer even better <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/tech\/887104\/honor-magic-v6-thinnest-battery-launch-mwc\">IP68\/69 protection against rain and debris<\/a>. That means you\u2019ll need to have the lock\u2019s proprietary cable on you should you ignore the low-battery warnings and let it die. It can be quickly recovered, however: I saw a completely dead (and locked) Chain Lock spring back to life after just two or three minutes of charging off the USB-C port of an iPhone.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">You can still unlock the TMD Chain Lock should your phone die. You just have to tap in your four digit \u201cemergency code\u201d on the lock\u2019s button. Choosing a code like 1324 would require 1 push, then 3 pushes, then 2, and 4. The ring around the button changes colors to visually prompt you for each new number. The TMD app also lets you share the lock with friends and family, who can also come to your rescue with their own phones.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac1 _1xorkac0

duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">For added peace of mind, it\u2019s always a good idea to double-lock your bike, so most urban cyclists combine a chain lock with a ring lock that\u2019s permanently mounted to the frame and prevents the rear wheel from spinning. TMD has already announced an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmdlocks.com\/pages\/tmd-u-lock-coming-soon\">\u201canti angle grinder\u201d U-Lock<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmdlocks.com\/pages\/tmd-ring-lock\">GPS-equipped Ring Lock<\/a> coming later. Having my phone unlock both of my bike\u2019s locks simultaneously would really up the convenience factor and better justify TMD\u2019s pricing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _18mzr4ba _19wv7tc1\">Right now, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmdlocks.com\/products\/tmd-chain-lock?variant=55654846103877\">paying \u20ac249<\/a> when equivalent analog bike locks costs a quarter of that would be foolish for most people. The ART-2 certified <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abus.com\/int\/Consumer\/Bicycle-locks\/Chain-Locks\/8900\">ABUS 8900<\/a>, for example, in the same flexible 110cm length, costs around \u20ac60 (about $68). If you can afford the TMD Chain Lock and really hate keys, or need a keyless lock that can be shared digitally with others, then have at it. Otherwise, it won\u2019t justify its exorbitant price.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac1 _1xorkac0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--highlight _1044qizj _1upt4f20\">\n<div class=\"_1upt4f21\"><\/div>\n<div>\n<div id=\"specifications\" class=\"_1gfm6td1 _1gfm6td0 _1upt4f23 duet--article--standard-heading _19wv7tc1\">\n<h2 class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">Specifications:<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"_1upt4f26\">\n<ul class=\"duet--article--unordered-list _1044qizi irzhn80 _19wv7tc1 _1upt4f27\">\n<li class=\"irzhn81\"><span class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">Security rating: ART-2 certified<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"irzhn81\"><span class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">Operation: Keyless Bluetooth<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"irzhn81\"><span class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">Deterrence: Motion activated 100dB alarm<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"irzhn81\"><span class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">TMD Locks App: Manages sharing, location tracking and more (iOS and Android compatible)<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"irzhn81\"><span class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">Sizes: 70cm (1.3kg), 110cm (1.7kg) and 160cm (2.1kg)<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"irzhn81\"><span class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">Colorways: Navy, Beige and Black<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"irzhn81\"><span class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">Power: 9 month battery life.
