Bicycle and Lock for Deterring and Preventing Theft
According to embodiments of the invention, systems, devices and/or methods are provided for preventing and deterring theft of a park and/or locked bicycle. Various embodiments of the invention implement several novel features, including, in one embodiment, a bicycle that includes electric circuitry associated with a locking component which, when activated, generates an electrical current waveform sufficient to apply an electrical shock to a person who is trying to misappropriate the bicycle by attempting to break the lock and/or move the bicycle. A radio-frequency identification system may be employed to detect whether the person tampering with the bicycle is the owner of the bicycle.
