dc.description.abstractThe objective of the project is to find a solution to reduce bike theft, in particular e-bikes. A large percentage of bikes are not locked when they are stolen, mostly due to the inconvenience of locking your bike. The goal is to improve the user-experience of a Ulock, so that locking your bike is almost effortless. After performing a user study to find out the customer requirements, ideas are generated that meet these requirements. The best idea is a Bontrager U-lock that is stored on a District+ rear rack. The U-lock blends in with the rack and has a minimum impact on the aesthetics of the e-bike. This idea is then further developed into a finished product by making use of the available prototyping facilities. The material and manufacturing method are selected, and the total production costs are calculated. The final product is verified by assembling the complete product on a physical and CAD model of the Trek District+ 7.pt_PT
