The U-Lock is designed to store up to 10 fingerprints, which makes it possible for friends, family or members of the same household to share a single bike without having to worry about keeping tabs on sets of keys. The high-security [biometric bike lock](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bosch-battery-lock) boasts a weather-resistant design, plus a drill-resistant cylinder and a bolt cutter-resistant, covered hardened steel shackle. As Kim Kelley, president and CEO of [Hampton Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-painted-house) recognizes, "With bicycle sales soaring since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, and over 100 million electric bicycles expected to be sold over the next 2-4 years, it's a perfect time to be innovating in the bike security category."
