Review on πŸ”’ Etronic Bike Lock M6 - Reliable 6ft Coiled Combo Cable Lock with Mounting Bracket by Jack Robi

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Lasted a month or less, only used a couple of times

I was very fortunate to be able to lock my daughter's bike in a way that wasn't really securely locked. I wrapped it around the handlebars instead of locking it properly, which I've never done before. I was lucky because the lock didn't open. From what I've researched, combination locks can go bad if dirt or sand gets into them. I don't know how that could have happened. We didn't ride in sandy/muddy areas and the bike lock was always properly stowed away and kept in a bin. No problem until it's suddenly unlocked. I still see him every now and then when we visit the park. Nobody has cut it yet. Almost a month later, it's still rolled up on a bike rack. I try again from time to time, but no. The thing just doesn't work anymore. At least it was cheap so it was a waste <$10. Can't say I wouldn't recommend it because it was great until it got there and I'd say the odds are in your favor it won't happen to you, but if it does, it will for everyone get very angry, set you free or something like that. If I hadn't accidentally locked the bike the wrong way, my kids and I would be stuck in the park in the middle of a hot Florida sun day and wouldn't be able to get home.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Not sure
