A rash of recent bicycle theft in Boulder has been in the news lately. A reported 28 secured bicycles were taken off bike racks and another 13 bike thefts or attempted thefts from garages around town have been reported since May 1. Think of all the other bike thefts that have gone unreported, too! City Lock would like to remind you of the importance of securing your bicycle with reliable hardware -- even when kept in a garage!

Police recommend using heavy duty chain to secure your bike, but who lugs that around in their messenger bag? City Lock recommends a high quality U-Lock, like Kryptonite or Master Lock. These reliable locks are resistant to prying and cutting and are compact enough to stash in your bag or backpack.
 
We have a variety of U-Lock models available at our 30th St. location, and we're offering you a $5 discount on any of our Master or Kryptonite brand U-Locks! (click here to print the coupon)
 
Sign up for our Email list and you can DOUBLE this coupon! First, register your bicycle with the Boulder Police Department's bicycle registration program to help combat the ongoing problem of bicycle theft in Boulder. Read more about it by clicking here. Then bring proof of your registration to our service center showroom at 2898 30th St. (near Valmont) and give us your email address to receive $10 off your purchase of any Master or Kryptonite brand U-Lock we have in stock!
 
You may register your bicycle at any of the following locations:
  •     Boulder Police Department, 1805 33rd St., 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday
  •     Boulder Police Hill Community Police Center (CPC), 1310 College Ave., 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday
  •     Pearl Street CPC, 1500 Pearl St., 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday

City Lock is proud to announce one more reason to look forward to Fridays: the Follow Friday Discount! Each Friday, we will select one new Twitter user in Boulder upon whom to bestow this very special honor. We'll send the winner a tweet indicating the kind of discount won (usually10%-25%, though sometimes we get in the mood to throw out freebies!). All the winner has to do to claim this prize is drop by our shop located at 2898 30th St. in Boulder and mention his or her Twitter username! The discount applies to any single item or service we have available.

There are no strings attached to this offer; we just think it's a fun way for us to introduce ourselves. After all, City Lock may have been serving Boulder for decades, but we are still new to this Twitter thing. Should you find yourself a Follow Friday Discount winner one day, we'd be honored for you to follow us back and/or re-tweet to your friends, but it's not required. If you have any questions or comments about the Follow Friday Discount, please don't hesitate to give us a shout at info@citylockusa.com, or contact us the old fashioned way by calling 303-444-4407.
