Overade, a French company known for innovative cycling gear like electric bike helmets and foldable bikes, has launched the Loxi bike bag, a dual-purpose product that functions as both a storage bag and a security tool. The 15-liter version of the Loxi attaches to a bike's rack and includes a 4-digit lock and a 12 mm diameter cable to secure items such as helmets or gloves. However, Overade emphasizes that while the bag has security features, it is not designed to lock the bike itself. The company advises users not to rely on the Loxi for full bike security, noting that the cable and cut-resistant fabric offer protection against theft but not guaranteed 100% safety. The Loxi is constructed with a waterproof PVC tarp on the outside and an internal fabric rated at level 5 for cut resistance. This fabric is made from a blend of glass fiber, polyester, and ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), a material known for its strength and durability. Overade claims this fabric is 40% more resistant to cuts than Kevlar, a well-known high-strength synthetic fiber. The bag also features a zip closure combined with a rolltop-style design to keep contents dry in the rain. The 15-liter model includes a 53 cm cable that can be looped around a fixed object and secured to rear bike racks with a diameter up to 16 mm, providing stability during rides. The Loxi is available in three sizes: a 15-liter version, a 9-liter model with a frame strap, and a smaller 4-liter version introduced in 2018. The 15-liter bag weighs 820 grams, while the 9-liter version is lighter at 660 grams, making them suitable for regular use on bike racks without adding significant weight. These features make the Loxi convenient for cyclists who need both storage and basic security for their belongings. The Overade Loxi 2-in-1 bike bag with lock is currently available on the company's official website and through various retailers. Pricing varies by size, with the 9-liter version costing 90 euros and the 15-liter version priced at 109 euros. The product aims to offer cyclists a practical solution for carrying gear while offering some level of protection against theft, though it is not a substitute for a dedicated bike lock.
