Abstract
A method for immobilizing a vehicle, in particular an electric bicycle. A drive train of the vehicle includes a clutch that includes a first clutch component and a second clutch component that are situated coaxially with respect to one another and configured to be rotatably fixedly connected to one another by mechanical contact in at least one predefined rotational direction. The method includes: detecting an input of a user for activating an immobilizer, and actuating an actuator as a function of the detected input, as the result of which the first clutch component and/or the second clutch component are/is displaced in the axial direction, as the result of which the mechanical contact between the first clutch component and the second clutch component is separated.
