A bicycle security apparatus comprises a tether having a flexible core formed from at least one elongate resilient cord and a sleeve surrounding the core that is expandable and comprises a braided material including metal strands. The core may comprise multiple elastic strands. The core preferably forms a continuous loop that may include a glued butt joint (B, figure 3) protected and reinforced by an adhesive lined heat shrink sleeve (A). The continuous loop may be controlled into a figure of eight arrangement by means of a Y-shaped heat shrink boot (I, figure 6). The apparatus may be designed specifically to enhance the securing of an immobilisation device comprising an immobilising jam member configured to be secured to the crank arm assembly of a bicycle.
