Introducing the Vélo Unique

Smart Seat™

Detail showing the male and female parts of the Vélo Unique Smart Seat™

The Vélo Unique Smart Seat^™ is a patented technology designed to eliminate bike theft by making a bike inherently valueless to a thief.

Already around 5% of cyclists remove their bike seat and seat post to try to prevent theft. But this on it’s own this doesn’t work as it is easy for a thief to just steal the bike and fit a new seat.

But what if a bike frame was designed such that it was impossible to fit a new seat to a stolen bike?

Who would steal a bike you can never fit a seat on?

The Vélo Unique Smart Seat™ is designed with the seat post and bike frame comprising uniquely keyed protrusions and recesses so that once you remove the seat only a seat post with the exact corresponding protrusions and recesses can be fitted.

Bikes are manufactured with one of over a thousand different frame and seat post sets with each set having different combinations of protrusions and recesses.

For the cyclist the Vélo Unique Smart Seat™ provides unrivalled bike security, reduces the cost of bike insurance and removes the need for expensive locks, and for manufacturers it provides a genuine opportunity to differentiate their products from those of their competitors.
