PREAMBLE TO THE DESCRPTION

THE FIELD OF INVENTION
The present invention relates to an innovative locking system designed specifically for compact electric bikes, with a focus on providing enhanced security, portability, and ease of use. As electric bikes continue to rise in popularity due to their environmental and economic benefits, they have also become prime targets for theft.

Traditional bike locks, while offering some degree of protection, often do not cater to the unique needs of compact or foldable e-bikes, which require a lightweight, portable, and easy-to-use solution that doesn't compromise on security.

This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing bike locks by providing a locking system that combines high-strength materials, advanced tamper-resistant features, and optional smart technology to ensure the safety of the bike without sacrificing portability. The system is designed to integrate seamlessly with the bike's frame and folding mechanisms, ensuring that it remains lightweight and compact for easy transport.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Electric bikes (e-bikes) have gained significant popularity as an eco-friendly, cost-effective, and convenient mode of transportation, particularly in urban settings. Compact electric bikes, with their foldable designs and lightweight builds, cater to users who need a portable and space-saving alternative to traditional bikes. However, with the rise of e-bike use, theft has become a growing concern. Electric bikes, often more expensive than traditional bikes, are prime targets for thieves. This has driven the need for effective, yet compact locking systems tailored specifically to the design and portability of compact e-bikes.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Compact electric bike locking systems aim to solve the dual problem of bike theft and portability. The challenge is to have unique locks to the flexibility of folding locks and the tech-enabled features of smart locks with alarms and GPS. The innovation in this space focuses on developing solutions that are easy to carry, fit seamlessly with the bike's design, and provide peace of mind to e-bike users. Integration with smart technologies is increasingly part of the solution, offering not just physical security but digital theft deterrence as well.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION
Specifications
The image portraits hardened steel or alloy for the core locking mechanism, ensuring high resistance to cutting, prying, or drilling. Anti-corrosion coatings to enhance durability and withstand weather conditions, keyless (combination, fingerprint, or smart-enabled) entry options. Compact design, optimized for electric bikes, especially foldable models. Lightweight construction, typically under 2 kg (depending on the model), ensuring easy portability. Mounting bracket included for attaching the lock securely to the bike's frame, without affecting the folding mechanism. Battery-powered smart module with long-lasting battery life (typically rechargeable, lasting several months per charge).

DESCRIPTION
The compact electric bike locking system is designed for foldable e-bikes or lightweight electric bikes, combining portability with high-security measures. The lock features a hardened steel core for resistance to physical attacks and compact folding or U-shaped designs for easy transportation. Its modular design includes a mounting bracket that attaches to the bike's frame, ensuring the lock does not interfere with the bike's compact folding or storage capabilities. The lock can integrate smart technology, utilizing Bluetooth, GPS, or wireless communication to enable remote locking, unlocking, and real-time monitoring through a mobile app. The lock is capable of detecting unauthorized movement, triggering an integrated alarm that deters theft. The design allows for multiple locking points, securing both the frame and the wheels, offering flexibility in how and where the bike is locked.
