# Naturalistic Bike Accessories The Dalman Supply Company Bike Locks are Made from Hemp By Tia Clarke | Published 2013-02-25 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dalman-supply-company References: [etsy](http://www.etsy.com/shop/DalmanSupplyCo) & [designboom](http://www.designboom.com/design/manilla-hemp-bike-chains-and-lettered-locks-by-dalman-supply-company/) This range of bicycle locks and chains from The Dalman Supply Company are entirely made from natural products. The bike locks not only look good, but are also robust enough to keep your two wheels safe. The natural materials used in the collection include leather, galvanized steel and manilla hemp. These bike locks won't rust or whither in the rough winter months, like regular metal chains, because all of the rope locks are coated with a weather resistant nylon rope. The pairing of [natural leather](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-sling-bag) with the company's embossed logo and natural fibres make for a look as hip as your bike. Keep your bike and precious cargo safe with these high-quality hand-crafted [bicycle safety accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/malle-expedition-collection). Dalman Supply Company products are available to purchase through the company's [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-christmas-tree-alternative) site.
