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 company’s 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 world’s 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 Bike’s 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.

Planet Bike Wheel Tether Bicycle Security Cable (5mm x 31 Inches) – Reviews

I use this to lasso wild chickens in the forest of Borneo. Also to tie up domesticated pigs and tether eels. Most animals won’t mind but don’t use this for long periods of time because it can cause skin rash, since it is a Cable (5mm x 31 Inches), also don’t use this for tethering electric eels.

The electric eel (Electrophorus electricus), is an electric fish, and the only species of the genus Electrophorus. It is capable of generating powerful electric shocks, which it uses for both hunting and self-defense.

A little wimpy for the cord strength, but I think it will do the job for seat security and the price was right.

The cable was a lot thinner than I expected from just looking at the picture. I should have pulled out a ruler to see what 5 mm (~1/5 inch) looks like before ordering. In any case, I think it does well enough deterring casual thieves. I use it to tether my front wheel to a u-lock on through the rear wheel — it’s just long enough for that purpose. It was cheap, so I’m not really complaining
