The exhibition launched a free online design resource (via Bikeoff.org) featuring over a hundred case studies of cycling facilities and schemes from around the world, aimed at helping a multi stakeholder audience, including designers and architects, to  “get smart quick” about bike theft and how to design secure cycling infrastructure for our cities. Further iterations of the exhibition, including new materials such as videos of interviews with designers upgraded visual materials, were shown at New London Architecture (6 weeks), and the Central Saint Martins innovation Centre Gallery (4 weeks). Some of the images from this exhibition have recently been included in an Australia exhibition curated by Paul Cozens at Curtin University.  Melbourne, Australia.
