OTTO DesignWorks is based in Portland, Oregon, founded in 2016 by lifelong cyclists who wanted a compact lock worth actually carrying. The original Cinch Lock launched after a successful crowdfunding campaign — a patented design combining stainless steel with OTTOLOCK's signature layered construction, hand-made in Oregon with components sourced across the United States. Since launching, OTTOLOCK has sold over 300,000 cinch locks worldwide and earned recognition from Bicycling Magazine and Popular Mechanics. Learn more at OTTOLOCK's official website.
At RA Cycles, the OTTOLOCK collection covers standard Cinch Locks and the more cut-resistant Hexband models — available in 18", 30", and 60" lengths to match your typical stop duration and carry preference. The 18" is a jersey pocket staple for quick café stops; the 60" gives you enough reach to loop through a wheel. All versions are light enough to carry every ride without thinking about it.
