It does n’t weigh how ultra - thin your wallet is , your pant pockets will still be overflowing if you ’re cram a huge set of keys in there . But even if you move everything onto a single pack , there ’s still no manner your current readiness of keys will get as compact as theTIK keychain .
Made from a re - purposed bike chain , the mystery to the TIK ’s stocky frame component is to do away with the head on each of the attached keys . This dramatically reduces their size , without reducing the amount of leverage you have when it comes to open a lock since the rest of key on the bike chain step in to fill that purpose .
Even though the TIK can flex and they keys are free to turn out along one axis , the whole thing always remains flat in your pocket . Which means you could even stash it in a wallet , if you had n’t already downgraded to a paper - thin card holder .
There are a few catches when it comes to the TIK , though . First , it ’s a Kickstarter initiative , which have in mind if it does n’t reach its financial backing destination of $ 23,000 , it wo n’t be going into production anytime before long . The other worry is that you ’ll need to specify exactly what vacuous keys you ’ll need installed on the TIK you ordered , and then hope that your local locksmith does n’t screw thing up when cut them .
There ’s a small chance the TIK wo n’t equip into the automatic paint cutting automobile in use in many stores . And if something does go amiss , you ’ll need to order a replacement blank , and trust that you ’ll be capable to reinstall it on the TIK mountain chain by yourself . That wo n’t be so bad — if you ’ve fixed your own bike chain , this is a piece of patty . [ TIKviaNotcot ]
