About Planet Bike
In November of 1996, Planet Bike was founded in Madison, Wisconsin. In many ways, Planet Bike began as a social experiment that dedicated itself to doing business in a different way. Instead of being just another company that develops and sells products with profit as its end goal, Planet Bike wanted to help bring about positive change for people, their communities, and the environment.

Despite being a simple machine, the people at Planet Bike have always believed that the bicycle has great potential to help improve the world and the lives of the people in it. From the start, they have embraced an alternative corporate purpose which seeks to help get more people on bicycles by making communities friendlier places for the self-propelled. By donating 25% of company profits to causes that promote and facilitate bicycle usage, Planet Bike hopes to make an impact.

Social experiments aside, Planet Bike was born from the heart of a cyclist with a goal of making innovative, high quality, and practical bicycle accessories. Simply put, they strive to design and develop the best bicycle products in the world. In the companys short ten year history, they have made important product innovations within the bicycle industry. Advancements include the 4-line computer which is now a standard in the industry and the worlds first self-contained HID light. Not bad for a company that ten years ago started as a one man operation. Today, while still a small company, Planet Bike continues to evolve and improve their product line with the goal of always striving to build accessories that make it easier for people to ride their bikes. Since 1996, Planet Bikes financial support of the grassroots bicycle movement has totaled $500,000. By 2010, they have made a goal to donate $1 million to organizations that are dedicated to making America a friendlier place for cyclists.

slows down the thieves       rating

I bought this after my seat/seat post were stolen. This might slow down theives. They'd have to carry bolt cutters to steal your seat, and that'd make them sorta comspicuous. I figure this is the best you can hope for on seat protection that is easy enough to use all the time. I hate thieves. Should shoot them, but you can't.

Good product that is easy to install and works as a deterent for someone walking off with your bike seat. Probably could be cut with wire cutters, but again, not someone just walking by. I also looped through my saddle bag as once someone decided to take my bag off my locked bike(at least they left the garage door opener).
Don't use to lock expensive bike       rating

My friend Mike has one of these 3mm cables. I told him it was no good, but he maintained that it was uncuttable. I took a pair of simple utility shears and cut clean through it in under a minute. The shears were destroyed, but no more bike cable. Imagine what a bolt cutter can do. Let's face it, it's a 3mm (millimeter) cable. It will deter middle school children and pets from stealing, but that's about it. DO NOT USE IT TO LOCK EXPENSIVE EQUIPMENT. Only VERY heavy duty chain locks and U-locks should be trusted on expensive bicycles. Combination locks can be smashed easily with hammers.
Planet Bike Seat Leash       rating

This is a nice good quality study cable which is the perfect size to secure your seat without being in the way. You can attach it to your bike in such a way so it will wrap around itself and the seat and not need an additional lock. The diagram is on the planet bike plastic tag attached to the cable when you receive it. I live in the city and I hate the thought of coming out to get my bike and the seat is gone. This is cheap insurance against that happening.
