Hiplok Secures the Tern Orox—because an SUV-sized cargo bike deserves serious lockdown How do you lock up a beast like the Tern Orox? With Hiplok, naturally. We’ve followed Hiplok since their 2011 debut, and they’ve kept the innovations coming—from wearable chains to the Airlok, a wall-mounted storage system that’s museum-worthy. After years of testing, I trust their anchor, chain, and u-lock combo completely. It’s secure, solid, and built for bikes that mean business.
Hiplok Secures the Tern Orox X Chain
Formerly known as the E-DX Chain, the X Chain is built from 10mm premium hardened steel and designed to pair seamlessly with Hiplok’s D-locks, including the formidable D1000 and DX1000. Its loop-end design gives you extended locking length (110cm), making it ideal for securing larger frames, multiple bikes, or awkward lock-up scenarios.
What sets it apart:
- Loop-End Versatility: More flexibility, more locking options
- Frame-Friendly: Tough nylon sleeve protects your paint job
- Built to Last: Lifetime warranty when registered within 30 days
- Sold Secure Gold Rated: Trusted protection for high-value bikes
Whether you’re locking up a Tern Orox, an R&M Load4, or just want peace of mind on your daily commute, the X Chain delivers serious security without the bulk of a motorcycle chain. It’s portable enough to carry, tough enough to trust, and smart enough to be part of a modular locking system
DX1000: The Lock That Laughs at Angle Grinders
If you’re locking up a high-value e-bike or cargo bike, you’re not just deterring casual theft—you’re defending against power tools. That’s where the Hiplok DX1000 comes in.
Engineered with graphene composite technology, the DX1000 is part of Hiplok’s 1000 Series: the first D-locks designed to resist angle grinder attacks. This isn’t marketing fluff—the material actually wears down grinder discs, turning the thief’s go-to tool into dead weight.
Key features:
- Anti-Angle Grinder Armor: Graphene composite shackle resists motorized attacks
- Double Locking Tabs: Thieves must cut both sides—good luck with that
- Sized for Big Bikes: 112 x 205mm internal space fits e-bikes and moto frames
- Multiple Carry Options: Bracket for bikes, sleeve for panniers or top boxes
- Lifetime Warranty: Register within 30 days for peace of mind
At 2.6kg, it’s not featherweight—but that’s the point. Pair it with the X Chain and you’ve got a modular fortress that’s as mobile as it is menacing.
